Lips Gently Merging

The sky was blue, as deep-blue as the sea The grass fresh, and as green as you please The air redolent of honeysuckle and vine Your lips as inviting as a full, rich red wine The rains crept up softly, the sky hadn't darkened Nor to thunder's voice had the two of us hearkened Held fast by the dreamy look in each other's eyes Two lovers in love, mesmerized, hypnotized … As we moved ever closer, our lips gently merging The rain beat against us, our sweet union urging --- And when the skies parted, bright sunshine burst through Nestling in the arc of love's rainbow, imbued with her hues

Actually, I do too, but since I'm supposed to be 'a poet' or something, I throw a romantic one in the mix once in a while. LOL. Always appreciate your support. Happy Holidays! ~ Gershon

It's amazing how we can tune the world out, even when rain is falling upon us, because we are with the one we love. Such pleasant memories your poem evokes, Gershon. Congratulations on your win in Brian's contest, Carolyn

How much do I owe you! No. To reword this: How much I owe you! Thank you for your continued encouragement and support, Michelle. It means so much to me. Season's best! ~ Gershon

Very generous of you, my dear friend. I'll only accept this title: PIT (Prince-In-Training)...btw: You are my role model for romantic writes, Your Highness … another btw: Have you checked out Vladislav Raven's poetry? He's truly quite 'the Prince' of Romanticism... Thank you again, Chris. Truly, I can't thank you enough, for all of your support and encouragement. Blessings, Gershon
