A lover’s kiss





                             A lover’s kiss

Come lie beside me softly, and share a lover’s kiss
And while passing not a word, absorb ourselves in bliss

Wind your arms around me love, cast off the cares within
For surely from the core of heaven comes this warmth again.

There is no struggle in our world, the private world we share
It comforts every longing with us lying there.

Just as the moon arises to replace the setting sun
A single kiss can light our way and sorrows overrun.

And oh the strength of touching, how it overcomes our need
As wistful as the willow, the lightness of a breeze.

So cling to me and pass the night just as I cling to you
Allow the strength and joy to flow, and our love renew.

                             ---William Stroud
