The stars
observe
our kiss
(hear me talking
to myself)
'This kiss is paradise
on earth! '
Startled, a star
falls from its appointed
place.
'Wish...wish! '
you insist between kisses.
I wish.
Wish(that if there is)
a paradise hereafter
it will be
just this
this kiss
forever.
'What did you wish for? '
you plead.
I wished...
for what I already have
for what is
already
true.
And, then
(to prove the point)
I kiss you.
