Tiny Kiss

by

I softly kiss your
little wet nose
gray nose
that matches your
gray fur
you let me kiss
you twice
with my hands
cupped around your
face, eyes closed
then you walk
around the desk
behind the computer
and back again
with all your
beautiful grayness
to say
“Hello.”

Received those Kisses

by

We waited for the
ambiguous space
between
the “1” and the
“Happy New year!”
forgetting again
that it’s all a facade
a mirage
a human made
fob
globs on
thickly and lusciously
like chocolate cake frosting–
Nice in theory
But an
eventual killer–

My body told me not to force it
so I slept almost through
awoken for a splendid hug
the deeper meaning spoken
with the eyes
enough for me and the baby
She’s quite happy I think
to have chosen me
and received those
kisses.

This is Bliss

by

I felt you
last night
hugging me
and giving me a kiss
you spiritual ghost!
you jumped to my husband
and then the girls
You said you could be
anywhere
all over the world
at the same time
and this
is bliss.
