the_act_of_a_kiss
Death of a Rose The act of a kiss
has 5 steps that bring it
to the point of solution.

It starts with the light brush
of a hand along a cheek,
a slight tilt of the head
before the touch,
an eye inquiring.

It continues as a breath,
a sigh, a beginning, a quickening
pulse, a turn of both mind and head.

The parting of the lips,
the readiness of this encounter.
it is building, it is flushed now,
your heart is ready, you are ready.

A bent pairing your lips & mine,
touch...touch....touch again.
A cascade of lips.
It has begun. A new act.
