The kiss

"Before you kissed me 

only winds of heaven
Had kissed me, and the tenderness of rain -
Now you have come, 

how can I care for kisses
Like theirs again?...

I am my love's and he is mine forever,

Sealed with a seal and safe forevermore - 
Think you 

that I could let a beggar enter

Where a king stood before? "
