A SUMMER KISS: award winner

A SUMMER KISS


When we met that summer eve,
As the moon shyly shone,
I had a heavenly whiff
Of a scent yet unknown.

My heart thumped as I glanced down
Your deeper-than-sea eyes.
In them I found purest love.
Passion in me did rise.

I gave a sweet tender kiss
And held you in embrace
Which was an eternity,
Face pressing into face.

Memories of that moment,
That spot, that moon, that sky,
Those eyes, that kiss, that heartbeat,
Can I forget, can I?
