Think Not, Not For A Moment Let Your Mind

by Edna St. Vincent Millay

Think not, not for a moment let your mind,
Wearied with thinking, doze upon the thought
That the work's done and the long day behind,
And beauty, since 'tis paid for, can be bought.
If in the moonlight from the silent bough
Suddenly with precision speak your name
The nightingale, be not assured that now
His wing is limed and his wild virtue tame.
Beauty beyond all feathers that have flown
Is free; you shall not hood her to your wrist,

Apart (Les Séparés) -

by Marcel Desbordes-Valmore

Do not write. I am sad, and want my light put out.
Summers in your absence are as dark as a room.
I have closed my arms again. They must do without.
To knock at my heart is like knocking at a tomb.
Do not write!

Do not write. Let us learn to die, as best we may.
Did I love you? Ask God. Ask yourself. Do you know?
To hear that you love me, when you are far away,
Is like hearing from heaven and never to go.

A Song Of Sherwood

by Alfred Noyes

Sherwood in the twilight, is Robin Hood awake?
Grey and ghostly shadows are gliding through the brake,
Shadows of the dappled deer, dreaming of the morn,
Dreaming of a shadowy man that winds a shadowy horn.

Robin Hood is here again: all his merry thieves
Hear a ghostly bugle-note shivering through the leaves,
Calling as he used to call, faint and far away,
In Sherwood, in Sherwood, about the break of day.

Lovers

by Victoria M. Lemmons

Grip tightly my hand as we go, never allow your fear to show.
As quietly as you can move forward, leave behind the past.
Live for us at long last, not for all those other.
Hold on to the dreams, things are not as they seem.
God would not allow you to suffer, kiss me now and forever
more
Our lives have plenty of happiness in store. We shall always be
lovers.

At An Inn

by Thomas Hardy

WHEN we as strangers sought
Their catering care,
Veiled smiles bespoke their thought
Of what we were.
They warmed as they opined
Us more than friends--
That we had all resigned
For love's dear ends.

And that swift sympathy

DREAM

by Gayatri Puri

I saw a dream
Standing with you,
Near the rivers and streams
Having an ice-cream
Kissing you without any a'we
Looking at thee
Just you and me.

Red Lips

by Magnus Elmquist

If only I could encapsulate her kiss in a poem
I would read it every morning, before I fell asleep
And every mundane morning, when I woke up

Never would I grow tired of her soft, sweet,
petite, full, warm, embracing and captivating
Red lips.

Lovers' Lips

by Blaine B

"Soul meets soul on lovers' lips" – Percy Shelley
Soul mates.
Our connection was so pure,
Our hearts combined as if they were made for each other,
As if we were made for each other,
And when your hand
Meets mine,
That connection is only made stronger,
Your fingertips shock my skin with pure joy,
Your lips send a jolt through mine,

Kiss

by Evelyn Judy Buehler

sunshine golden warm
blossoms glisten morning dew
moonlight on dreamers

comfort rainbow sky
the premiere green of the spring
lovely fall farewells

beauty in my eyes
a balmy breeze in the shade

First Kiss

by Louis Zo

Hush. A heart-stopping secret
Butterflies flush. A lingering dread
Blood rush. A budding regret
Lips brush. An invisible thread
Warm mush; sweet nectar flood.

Bewitched puppets, twisting necks
Skulls dance. The whirling black---
Hair tufts in a gripping clasp.
Hearts prance. No turning back.
