Your Lips, Are Like An Eclipse

Your Lips Are Like An Eclipse…
… and not just Because – It Rhymes…
but, when They Cover Mine to Sip
They Take The Place of Wine

… and Intoxicating Sight and Taste
As Your Lips Come to Lay
Upon my Brow and Mouth and Face…
They Take My Breath Away!…

Your Lips Are Like An Eclipse…
Passing Slow – Across My Cheek…
Your Clean, Sweet, Flavor – Drips
Circumventing Surface Speech

Your Lips Are Like An Eclipse…
… Two - Momentous, Celestial-Signs
A Questing Path of Gentle Grips…
They Conquer My Throat… and Climb…

… Blocking Shy – and Away Shame Slips
‘til A Ring of Desire – Glows Bright…
Your Lips Are Like An Eclipse…
Turning Day… to Deep Midnight

Your Lips Are Like An Eclipse…
… and not just Because It Rhymes…
For tho’ You’ve Dipped – One-Quick-Trip…
… I Eagerly Await Next Time…
 
(… When Your Lips Are An Eclipse Over Mine…)
