Analysis of Love-kissed

Sherry Caayupan 1980 (Davao city)



The paradise sets forth life's new meaning,
A breakthrough to the realms of happiness;
In this world full of material things,
One seeks for the utmost tenderness;

A paradise abounding of sweet kisses,
From a love that's pure and true;
A love made with sweetness and touch that surely pleases,
Love will never be to the deepest blue;

A gift as sweet as a given dowry,
As strong as love's real worth;
Life more precious could be,
As precious as love and a child's birth;

A tender touch made with gladness,
Gives forth the sweetest feeling;
Of a distant love's true fortress,
Taken to places simply flying;

A kiss given forth to the sweetest lips,
Vested by a love so truly loving;
A willing heart tastes those tender lips,
A granted wish from a star twinkling;

Found is the paradise that lives,
Beneath the sparkling moon and twinkling stars;
Of love that forever gives,
Kisses and touches that are sweetest yet by far.
