THE KISS
I fell in love with your lips
beautiful, red, voluptuous,
like peaches
adorned with cherries.
When I began to kiss you
your mouth tastes like
the fruits of passion.
Everything was so lively, so real,
as if two angels
were making love on my tongue.
And then I understood
why Adam
had sinned!
GEORGE ROCA (Romania)
