Forth of a Romance
Karla Urquidez
Roses only fail to come in spring
when they are not given the kiss of the summer heat.
The crack of wood, grasping the clear,
clapped sky, sparking a light brighter than the deep blue of the night.
The fireworks dispersed themselves
every which way onto the full moon's luminous brilliances.
A flutter of prickles of moist heat ran through my spine
and into my heartbeat. I wondered why is life so wonderful?
Then he leaned over pressing his lips to my soft heart shaped mouth.
My hand swept his soft face and as his eyes shut
I gently pressed my self-forward kissing his eyes.
Now I know why life is so wonderful!
