The Kiss

My left hand supports your neck and upper back

while my right hand cradles your head as I

lower and bend you back.

Your hands slip under my arm pits to feel my

broad shoulders supporting us both.

As our lips draw close, your left leg wraps

behind my knees and your eyes close in

anticipation.

Our lips touch softly and then more firmly as

our passions rise.  Our lips hold this embrace

for a few moments, and then slowly peel away–a

gentle teasing helped by your lipstick.

I draw you back to vertical with my hands

cupping your shoulders.

“Happy New Year!”
