Tender Me a Kiss

Tender me a kiss
 a brush of lips upon my cheek
 gentle, loving, fragile wish, sheik
 to set my soul afire, soft and weak.
Whisper love and comfort, joy and peace
 to right this world so that war and hate will cease.

Tender me a kiss, some long goodbye
 when all I sense and feel would make me cry
 but hidden safe within the confines,
 hope continues to abide.
In your hurry dispel all fears and worries compromising
 tender me a kiss, anticipation waits on the horizon.

Beautiful Rengay poetry, DM! The serene sentiments of a blessed muse, whose ink spilled blissfully. Very thoughtful prose ... an exceptional poem brimming w/much deep flowing ink insight. Love and best wishes for the holidays.
