Reciprocity
Gently but inexorably you push
A large red ripe strawberry between my lips
And I accept the rubied jewel
Leaving my mouth open for the sweeter kisses
Which follow as you attempt to retrieve
That which was so recently given
I allow this for I find your combination
Of flavors upon my tongue quite intoxicating
And because I wish to return your gift
As I don’t care for strawberries.
