Edward Ibeh Poet Rispetto

Notes About The Poem

Date written: 07/26/2023

I Kissed You With My Eyes

When I first held you, I kissed you with my eyes,
       And fell in love; your birthday, a special day!
You're the hope floating in the turquoise blue skies;
 The bright sunshine behind clouds of ashen gray.
         You'd lift my spirits whenever I feel blue.
    My heart bursts with delight just looking at you
      No question, you're but a mesmerizing sight!
      Oh, what a feeling! My soul have taken flight.
