The breath of life passes
between your lips to blend with all
the breath across the ages ever expelled by all
the living creatures that have graced
this earth before you.
Your breath is my breath
and our breath and all breaths of all
time and nothing is new to this living, pulsing,
breathing planet with life breathing
and devouring each other.
The water of life trickles
from your lips as you savour that
all enrapturing moment taking you across the
threshold of awareness to bliss and
enfolding you in the moment.
That water as breast milk
which built your life and as pure water
that nurtured your life and continues to do so
no matter how hard you try to flavour it
with the experience of others.
The food of life is kissed
by you with every mouthful and with
every opportunity you eat this or savour that
exotic or mundane food and flavour
depending upon your whimsy.
Have you had the need to give
the kiss of life to save someone from
death while they lay there going blue as their breath
was used up and the body screamed
silently for someone to help.
Have you received a kiss that
has stopped you in your tracks and
left you bereft of speach and the ripples of that
one brief touch still cascade through
your life alchemising your soul.
Do you kiss often and savour
that velvet touch across those most
sensitive of nerve dense pouting beauties caressing
life with touch and suggestive
smile that lures others in.
You. Are you reading this, or
have you become lost in thoughts and
memories of kissing and loving and losing yourself
in the rapture of being in love and
the feeling that all is complete.
Take the kiss of life with you
in every moment and breathe its essence
back into the world with every loving thought you
can create, allowing your love breath to
kiss the pain away from the unkissed.
