KISS
Like golden sails my dreams sail slowly
on the lustful seas of fantasy
and glide to where you’ve gone,
where your two eyes laugh and cry
where you shine, beloved lily,
girl of unblemished beauty,
and tuneful songs join your enchantment
that breathes from unkissed lips.
My saddened heart rejoices when
in night’s cool darkness, tempest passed,
you come to bloom, my little flower,
in the lonely orchard of the world.
My soul that never learned to kiss
then knows immaculate ecstasy.
