A Good Night Kiss By Kenny Davis

A Good Night Kiss by Kenny Davis Oh! How I wish I could Give her, but one good night kiss Affection shown from my heart to hers As she drifts off into a slumbering bliss I could see laying, but a gentle kiss Upon her soft, angelic cheek And whisper to her, “Good night love…..” “….I’ll await you in my dreams.” A kiss from lips as soft As the pillow where lies her head Such relaxation for her that she had never felt before That she lays her head on my chest and in my arms instead Her ear pressed along my chest To get the mere chance to listen to my heartbeat Like a lullaby, music to her ears As she drifts slowly off to sleep As I cherish the privilege Of watching her sleep I think to myself, “God….” “….I don’t deserve this blessing of having this angel of yours next to me.” “Lord, I couldn’t thank you enough.” “There really are no words.” “I can’t help, but to always wonder….” “….am I really worthy of her?” Through all of her frights and fears Her smiles and her tears That when awakens from them all, She knows that I am there As she opens those eyes To the blessing of another sunrise I can’t help, but look at this stunningly, beautiful woman and say, “Blessed is the man that wakes up by her side.” With bright light of her eyes Glaring from that very somber sunrise Is the most majestic image of God’s creation Enough to make a man cry Cry out tears of joy, happiness Cries of Thanks unto the Lord For the blessing of this angel, here on earth The best blessing, I never deserved You would never have thought The intimacy from a good night kiss meant so much What it means to have our lips draw us closer By just allowing them one last touch Such love from a single kiss By God, might it be made to last Oh, but to lay, but one single kiss upon her cheek Even if it is to be, but my last. © October 2011 k.davis
