Dr.Ram Mehta Poet Quatrain

A Kiss Under the Mistletoe

A single beauty stood under a Mistletoe
Hung Outside the temple of the goddess of love
Waiting for the blessing of goddess Frigg
And expecting to bond with the man she loved.

A young man rushed under the Mistletoe tree
Looked with a question mark, an exclamation
Followed by a kiss on the forehead, then cheeks
On lips then comma after kiss with passion.

Both felt something melting that hurt in a way
The dreams, longings, sleeping deep got awakened
With a long kiss, he plucked berries till the last
They got out of the tree enchanted, freshened.center>

Pam Woolford December 8, 2013 at 10:50 PM Kissing under the mistletoe is such a romantic gesture. You can never tell what will follow. Lovely poem Dr.Ram Pam

Vee Bdosa December 5, 2013 at 7:53 AM Hello, Doctor, first let me thank you for the comments. Now down to the Mistletoe, LOL I was 8, and something of a more sexually minded kid than I should have been, but at a 4-H Club Christmas party there was mistletoe hung over a doorway, and who would suspect an 8 year old boy of this?Well, there was a 23 year old girl I really had a crush on, and I stood in the doorway and waved for her to come over, I had to reach up quite a bit, but I flat planted a grown up kiss on her.She lovd it.

Robin Davis December 2, 2013 at 9:09 PM Dr. Ram A nicely written piece of romance and love. It's strange what a little piece of mistletoe can make us do and feel. Nice job Thanks for the great comment on my Wasted Life poem

Charmaine Chircop December 1, 2013 at 7:23 AM How sweet the tradition of the mistletoe is amd how beautifully penned is this tale.Very romantic indeed.Tnks for stopping by my verse.

Jacob Cra November 30, 2013 at 1:35 PM Lovely. This is phenomenal work. Nevertheless, I do like to give helpful advice whenever possible. Personally, I think you should change the last line of the 2nd stanza.. it doesn't really flow. Nevertheless, nice work!
