The Silent KISS

"A kiss is magical because it touches the heart." Quote By Poet

The silent kiss can touch your heart,
a heart that is very far apart.
       I kissed your letters then licked the glue,
       as I sent all my love to you.
Red lips went flying through the mail,
with a perfume spray friend never stale.
You are living so far away,
                    will you get my lips and perfume mail today?
Hope you can read what I want to say,
I am sending a big laugh your way.
  Being away from a love one is hard,
  miss talking with only reading a card.
Days feeling like you are not in your prime,
but you must go on until the next time.
Loving calls ending with the silent kiss,
                      how do I say you are the one I do miss?
