Last First Kiss Poem by Susan Lacovara

Last First Kiss

Rating: 4.9


Ah, but to obtain
The last first kiss
Stolen from his lips
To consummate forever
Needing none other

What joy to fall into
The white flag surrender
Of sweetness
Held in arms that uplift
The sun into morning shine
Mine

All roads have led to him
I unpack all I carried long
Lining the drawer, set aside
With an emptying of reflection
Knowing it was here, all the while
My soul to be stored

With each day, every
I, to be lost in his scent
The rapture of belonging
Where land meets sky
Falling to the breath he breathes
Dispensing what I once shuttered
The sill of open windows
Carry his words and wishes
Near me, a collection of kindness
For ribbon tied bundles,
To keep

My lips have known many
And too many had stolen their worth
Yet he finds them new
And never to fade from nectar sweet
Whereas I waited
Dreams of streams and starlight
Simple songs my heart to sing
Here in this bliss
My last first kiss

Your phrase LAST FIRST KISS is a wonderful metaphor all by itself. It only takes a few moments of thinking about the three words and then PIING! I know exactly what it means And what it means - this is real, lasting, genuine passion, it will last characterized by this tenderness and passion. I always look for the argument in your love poems, that is, what the poem says about love in terms of ideas. But it's the feelings evoked that make a Love Poem work. And the feelings evoked here make the pulse race with delight.
