Notes About The Poem

For the  Redamancy Poetry Contest of Suzette Richards

Redamancy

I have to ask you
why you have not kissed me yet.
Your mouth tantalizes me.

I am a shy guy,
but now I feel emboldened
to taste your sweet honeyed lips.

Congratulations on your placement, Andrea. You hit the ground running by opening the poem with the question upfront - an unusual take on the brief which ensured you a placement in this contest. Regards, Suzette

Sounds like a sweet kiss. I'll take a couple of those, because I am a shy guy too. Hugs, Bill
