Daily Dose


From Selected Poems, Marina Tsvetaeva

A KISS ON THE HEAD

"A kiss on the head -- wipes away misery.
I kiss your head.

A kiss on the eyes -- takes away sleeplessness.
I kiss your eyes.

A kiss on the lips -- quenches the deepest thirst.
I kiss your lips.

A kiss on the head -- wipes away memory.
I kiss your head."
