Your Power's Secret
You know how vain it is,
Striving to give you up,
When you can sit and sup
On my whole life with just one kiss.
You try to prove lost youth—
Hair half-grey, wrinkle-lines;
How should I wander to such signs
When my soul's centre is your mouth?
I feel no Winter's nip
While yours the lower to bring
A breath of ageless Spring
With those two petals—lip and lip.
Charmed by their smiling rhyme,
The dull years backward fly:
Eternity flowers when I
Remember how you kissed first time!
