Fingertips trace sensuality
before shivers fade,
laying ley lines
between Dali-like limbs,
pathways are traversed
along subtle curves,
soft melody
whispers through
laden air;
we inhale melded memories
cooling sweated skin.
Half moon smile
reveals how I feel like earth
when spring breaks,
contented within bloom
of your arms.
