Passionate Kiss

Morning light wears a softer hue, embracing wet leaves, glistening in the sun. Thick grass brings a caressing warmth, to our feet, as we travel gentle slopes, to farthest hills, as lovers do. Our palms closed tight like oyster shells, covering rare pearls, as we watch pastel red skies turn a velvet blue If I were a bird I would glide above you, dipping my wing each time you smiled, allowing love's fragrance to fill our lungs, until they burst, releasing butterflies to the world, like a thousand tiny finger paintings, surrounding the innocence of love, that comes when two mouths melt in silence. 9/1/14
