Poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Kiss Me

Then, kiss me, sweet, just as you please;
I will not point, nor scold, nor tease;
Kiss me, dear love, in thy sweet way,
But kiss me oft, sweetheart, I pray!
Oh, sweet, I would be understood,
Give me a little kiss and good;
Kiss me, and in thy own sweet way--
Kiss me by night, kiss me by day;
Kiss me at morn, at noon, at night--
Kiss me whene'er you think it right;
Kiss me in pleasure, or in pain,
Oh, kiss me love, once and again!--
Kiss me, whate'er your mood may be,
With thrilling, soulful ecstasy! 

1. At the Boro Boedoer
2. St. Dunstan's
3. Sonnets of Sorrow. 18. The wise ones tell me that my heart's wild clamour
4. Applause
5. At Eleusis
