ENSCONSED

Satin hand in velvet glove
Belly to buttocks, bodies enfurled.
Touching lugano- like softest fuzz
Bodies infused,
By this sublime love.

She repeats each word, before it's said.
Internalized and well rehearsed
Silently whispering:
"I know you better,
than what's in my head".

Exalted in the nakedness of Being
abandoned in moments
Not wanton, but wanting
no more than this
Spent feeling.

The merger of minds
The sharing of seeing
The ultimate way to give to Life
More Joy,
More meaning.

Thanks JC!

Hadn't really thought much of it, but made an attempt to tie in with the theme... See if you can come up with something else/better perhaps....
Cheers
