To reach your welcoming lips

And return satisfied, for a moment.

The poem wants the warmth of a reader

With the breath of new life

Looking for a spark of inspiration

As mutual feelings soar

The words steep once more

Wanting an encore.

Poetic feelings of romance

Ask if they can dance.

Will you give them the chance

Grant this poem your fellowship

Put its words on your lip

The rhyme should be heard

Share the spoken word
