A Kiss Remembered

Beyond fair reason, I shall think of you. In fallen grass or gently flowered field. To see each fleeting moment fade to blue, With my distant thoughts, I silently yield. This memory to tremble ever soft, A misty vision of a face once kissed. I'm whisked to midnight skies and stars aloft, A sheltered afterglow now reminisced. The shadowed door with candlelight so still, An empty chair with a fading silhouette. Forgotten times in love's unyielding will, As flames to ash can trace the two who met. A hand that brushed a cheek to often soothe, A kiss remembered, many years removed. 12/27/13/
