Lisa Ricci Poet Free verse

Sealed With a Kiss

"sealed with a kiss"

I wear pearls you gave me
but they are not my jewels

I accept flowers you give me
but they are not my beauty

I look to the stars above
but they are not my light

pearls flowers and stars
are all pale compared to you

your love is more than this
always sealed with a kiss
