Dreamed of a Kiss
by Melina Raven Maness DieboldI dreamed of a kiss
that I blew to you
I dreamed that I missed
it went right over you
It sank through the mist
of the efferescent dew
Caused my heart to reminisce
Of the days of me and you
Our joys were a list
though oft I was blue
Made my insides twist
Thinking back on you
I strangled the kiss in my fist
In honor of the things you do
I felt its energy dismiss
and then my lips began to rue
Anger tremored down through my wrist
I picked up a pen and drew
a singular smile that hissed
a caricature of you
The fruit of Fall and Summer's Tryst
and dainty-lacy frost fell through
the frigid air full and amiss
with wint'ry memories of you
