A Kiss in Brussels Poem by Benno Barnard

A Kiss in Brussels

Rating: 5.0


We stand here freezing in our winter coats,
a kiss prevents my breath from showing white,
my hand slows to a halt in mid caress,
I want to let you go, but not tonight -
my fingers in your hair, the evidence.
Here for a second in this city park,
we're two cold lovers mouthing March,
who kiss as though exchanging quotes.
