Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Dew Kiss

sweet kiss on my lips
the morning sun
tickles my neck
caresses my cheek

birds happily sing
though I miss you

i long for the days
when we had each other
i long for a past
that was so tender

your love was my strength
now I carry on 
with what is left of me

the loss of you
meshed with my every fiber

an ache that cries out in silence
for its mate crossed over
a distance insurmountable
yet at times within my grasp

Kim Rodrigues July 21, 2021 at 5:41 AM Lovely, Line! My Dad, in his grief, wonders how Mom would have handled being the one left behind. After 3 months he is doing a bit better. He knows how much he is loved by his children and he shows his love too. Sweet moments amidst our grief. Line Gauthier July 21, 2021 at 5:45 AM That's beautiful ~
