Serpent’s Kiss
~~~
Lips as red as Eden’s apple
And twice as attractive
Filled with the knowing
Full and extractive
~~~
Where whispered the words
Sweet as a winter wine
That feed my smitten soul
And beg me there to dine
~~~
Just one short taste
Seems it could do no harm
I lean to meet your smile
Succumbing to your charms
~~~
And like a flash of lightning
In that momentary bliss
I willing give up heaven
For the fire that is your kiss
~~~
If Hades be the demanded cost
To burn away the original sin
Then kiss me one more time, my love
And let the burning begin
~~~
