A transient happiness
Wafer thin butterfly kiss
Silk-soft brush of lips
On skin
Light tremble of love
Meeting a baby’s cheek or
Mummy’s wrinkled skin or
Sister’s sweet ageing face
Sugarloaf baby
Such a tender moment
Hello and goodbye
Or simply “I love you”
And "you are a part of my life
That I cannot do without"
A kiss that is so imperative
To a fond understanding
And mutual affection

Sweet IP Pia.
Congrats on the cherry!
Have you heard of the ancient clan
called the Klan’o’thi Psychic Hosts?
Their kin dread spirits of every type
Be they nightmare ghouls or ghosts.
In pubs they are so rarely seen
They cannot sleep on Halloween
On hammocks they are immensely keen
In which they hang around in Aberdeen
For dread spirits get inside their head
If they’re drunk or rest in cosy bed
And as Uncle Macalister truly said
It’s no fun to be controlled by evil dead
When an malevolent spirit is in charge
Mischief and mayhem are soon at large
And yet morning after tired and pale
‘Tis the poor host that finds himself in jail.

"Kin dread spirits " very good Mangone. Thanks for your contribution to the comment box.

Wafer thin butterfly kiss

Meeting a baby's cheek or
Mummy's wrinkled skin

Delightful, short and sweet just like a kiss.

This is a BRILLIANT poem, Pia! Love these lines:
'And "you are a part of my life
That I cannot do without"
A kiss that is so imperative
To a fond understanding
And mutual affection'
One of your best and a definite favourite of mine :)
