Harry Horsman Poet Sijo

Power of Your Kiss

THE KISS

While words are lost in the silence of our emotions,
One it seems also oblivious of worldly dilemmas,
The power of your affections in this your wondrous kiss.


BATTLE OF THE SOMME
1916

When unable to touch in this a far off distant land,
Confronting a faceless enemy, whom I’m sure longs as I do,
Lives for the day when passions are released within a kiss.
