(does the 'I got the #1 happy, happy dance')lol This is, sensual, loving, romantic. Beautiful. Love it :) RYN: I have always tried to teach my teen that showing skin sometimes, 'less is more' in leaving something left to the imagination. I think, it heightens not lessens the intensity of the subject. But, I do like fine art nude photography. Not porn but, art.
I don't remember ever seeing you write haiku. This is a spectacular tribute to someone you love. Or, like someone said: Phew and someone else: I'm left speechless - it's complete.
"your kiss is the grave i enter, willingly - to rise - resurrected..."
Hi! Brian... Thanks, for sharing [The Edgar Allan Poe/Canada/South Carolina sign] and your [very] beautiful poetic words "love note in the margin of my book" can be used in [so many]different ways [this Sunday]...too! deedee :)
there is something in submitting to those big & little deaths, even if one kiss at a time, that brings us back around, really felt this brian, nice work ;-)
powerful because of the seeming shocking paradox but if you are truly going to love you have to be willing to risk it all and give all of yourself without reservation- the words flowed very well too :-)
Makes me wish I believed in resurrection. Shakespeare had a thing for death images linked with physical love and I do understand why: the unfathomable feelings must be turned into words somehow. And it is even harder when the spirit is engaged in true love. God Bless you.
Have you ever read Amiri Baraka's "Preface to a Twenty Volume Suicide Note"? Such a good reason to stay alive!
absolutely beautiful. Anytime someone can write a love poem that incorporates death in it and pulls It off I love it, and the way you used it here is magnificent.

Gorgeous, Brian.
What a challenge! A sacrifice and later to emerge stronger! Nicely Brian!

Just lovely:)
stunning. (breath-taking in more than one way)
Nice one!
=)
Sensual and sweet.
Very nice!
I have been thinking lately that I wish I had a grave to enter. Yet my wish is for a different sort.
There is definitely a willing surrender that happens.
Brian ... I can't recall you gifting us with a haiku ... be still my heart. This one is amazing!!!

Good grief. Sometimes you don't need a lot of words to make it happen. This is a favorite :)
I can't believe it...its a haiku !!!!
Smiles, I love the crisp kiss on the love note ~
Hit it out of the park.
11 words, and I've got a whooooooooooooooole story constructed in my head.
Flash fiction, boom, like that.
You can write so much into a kiss.
wow. you are a talented writer!

Oh my... that is PERFECT.
Short and sweet.
Have you ever heard the term "the little death"?
Kat
Lovely. I go for this.
Sweet and romantic
Hugs

Oooooooo
Brian, your margins are deep! :-)
wow, what a kiss!!
That kind of goes along with Halloween week but it is pretty hot too.
Love the little death, that kills what hampers and frets us, revives us to continue on. I love both the words and the picture, brian.
the power of a kiss...
Thats the shortest poem of yours that I ever read!
Good though!

Sunday 160? Tight.

Oh, to receive such a kiss!
This is your first haiku? Hooray! This is a fantastic start!!!
Do you write these down and leave them around the house for your wife? Such loving/lovely bits of soul. :)

Transfixed by this passion..I love the "no turning back" quality1
and now i know
what kind of man
can offer a kiss like that.
:-)
Home run, my brother.
Poe worked and lived on Sullivan's Island for a while. There is a lot of his history there. And a fantastic restaurant also is there named Poe's.
absolutely beautiful. Anytime someone can write a love poem that incorporates death in it and pulls It off I love it, and the way you used it here is magnificent.
This is the one I've been looking for from you, Brian. Short, simple, and profound. Bravo, sir! Bravo.
short and sweet, the best love notes
Does that mean she has the "kiss of death"? :) This is a beautiful thought and I don't mean to make light of it. These few lines provoke such thought.
Damn, boy! this is some GOOOOOD stuff!

*sigh*
