Greetings

The whiff of your scent
          makes my body quiver.
The glint in your eye
          makes my soul twitch.
The murmur of your voice
         makes my heart shiver.
The caress of your finger
          makes my lips itch.
The essence of your love
         sets me on fire.

Come,
    only you in my arms
        can quench my desire.

Sylvia Edwards

Theft

I stole
a kiss one May Day
while longing 
for longer kisses.

I know
now you
were startled
while longing
for liquid caresses.

You ran
and
I hid
One lied
and
one cried.

But 
you like
liars
and 
I like
fools.

Or
do I like
liars
and 
you like
fools?

Sylvia Edwards

Tell Me

Why is a single (secret) simple kiss
    more sensual (sexy) sensational
      than hours of passionate discourse?

Is it because it痴 from you?

Why is it when I declare:
   I 知 furious; I知 finished; It痴 over;
       a kiss can begin it anew?

Yes, it is because it is from you.

Sylvia Edwards

With you

When I知 with you, 
I see him, but
When I知 with him, 
I feel you.

When I知 with you, 
I want him, but
When I知 with him, 
I long for you.

When I知 with me, 
I知 alone, but
When I知 alone, 
I知 unsure of you.

Sylvia Edwards
