When I Kiss the Face of Love

A sense of softness speaks in moments
when I kiss the face of love
Occupying a thousand sunbeams
with a hint of ivory lace

I get lost in the corners of my thoughts
as they rush deep inside
Reflecting warmth to capture clouds
so they can no longer
Come near me

There is a place in my heart
that greets the breath
of the face of love
A million times I would inhale
the scent with no complaint

I delight in the mysteries and secrets
this breath so often tells
And etches within my soul
lovely memories that no words
Could ever take

Author's Note

Yes I am all mushy and romantic again today, just can't help myself........

It's the Spring and the sap is rising... and the hormones sloshing... I love the 'hint of ivory lace'... which sent me thinking of lingerie... and scents which I would not complain about...

You write with such soothing and caressing beauty... Do you do massage?

great rhythms... the first stanza, with the accent on the second syllable, then the triplets start... i admire the technical finesse
that undergirds the soft lines.....

Romance suites your pen because your writes are lovely as love itself.
