Public Domain Poetry And Stories - Kisses Loathsome. by Robert Herrick Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
I abhor the slimy kiss,
Which to me most loathsome is.
Those lips please me which are placed
Close, but not too strictly laced:
Yielding I would have them; yet
Not a wimbling tongue admit:
What should poking-sticks make there,
When the ruffe is set elswhere?
