Let me kiss you

A love poem

Let me kiss you,
when it's cool,
beneath the falling winter snow,
when the skies a beautiful dark pink.

Let me kiss you,
when the flowers begin to bloom,
when the tulips come out,
and the roses begin to pollinate."

Let me kiss you,
when we're alone,
and nobodies around to see the passion,
as we become intimate.

Let me kiss you,
during autumn,
beneath an oak tree,
as the leaves drop down below.

Let me kiss you,
when the birds sing to us,
or when they fly south,
when the seasons change.

Let me kiss you,
when it's dark,
when everything's silent,
and I can see you through ambient light.

Let me kiss you,
after I say "yes",
when I arise from one knee,
giving you the diamond of commitment.
