| AN INSTANT OF BLISS 12-28-01 how could you spoil a moment as sweet as this? when you couldn't taint this present-heaven with a simple kiss! your lips to mine, soft and strong, envelops my uncertainties my lashes flutter shut, my heart opens up i breathe in your comfortable, reassuring scent you speak to me a sigh, of disbelieving bliss and exhales, an inhalation of me yet your presence, so real, yet intangible my dream- so strong i could almost touch no, no time for earthly beings' sweet imaginings just an instant, a kiss couldn't corrupt. |

However far the dream may be My sister saunters over and when she leaves in may The car will stay Now I wait an eternity for her to simply unlock the door. |
