Forehead Kisses

forehead kisses

 

 

 

forehead kisses

have vastly become

a lost art

 

like a hand

firmly placed

to the small

of a woman’s back

 

like the syllables

of your name

lying in wait

upon my tongue.

The kindest man I know here, has spoken! Thank you, Ken! Hope the new year has been a good one thus far!

[C. M. Miller]

I am speechless as you posted so little and shared so much . . . Merlot?

[Kelly Scheppers]

Whenever I render you speechless I'm doing something good! Thank you, my Miller man!

[Brad Dehler]

Awaiting each motion. So seductive, to be yearned for. I really like the intrigue related to the lost art. Let us get it back!

[Kelly Scheppers]

Thank you, Brad! Good to see you this new year!

[Brad Dehler]

Thank you!! Likewise :)

[Thomas W Case]

Beautifully understated — every line lingers and evokes such quiet longing. I could feel each gesture.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Thank you most kindly, Thomas! Happy New Year!

[Curly Grace]

Lovely, Kelly. I have a couple of poems that mention the lost art of a hand at the small of my back. Something about being guided so gently through a doorway stirs something in me. I agree, not enough forehead kisses. will read more.

I used to watch my grandfather, as he walked by his lady's side. For as long as I live, I'll never forget the image of his hand at her back. So romantic. Thank you for giving this one a read, Sarah. It's quite dear to me!

[D. Mansfield]

this is exceptional erotic writing. and ZI know of the things you speak. My father was a gentleman and taught me all the subtleties of differences in how you touch, shake hands, kiss, dance, touch. Your right its all a lost art because when I do these things, its rare that the female even knows the difference.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Thank you for acknowledging what I brought attention to in writing this poem. Keep the values, Jimmy. You were taught well, and there are those who still very much appreciate it!

[John the Baptist]

Interesting imagery in this one, especially in the last verse. Quite erotic for such a brief piece. Well done.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Thank you, John!

[Ted Kniffen]
