Two very proud pilgrims
at attention
twin towers of passion
slightly parted
creased in life
parched in yearning
tongues for the taking
ready for the dance
slightly swollen
hearts pounding
in lover's language
secrets to be told
a promise of flesh
tasting sweet breath
burning dreams
they've spoken many words
quiet now
in this symphony
tasted salty wet before
buttons and bra hooks
plastic and steel
soon to be gone
...it's breast to chest
heart banging to heart
a kiss
the beginning
and ending
...everything in between
Author notes
In this contest at first I didn't think that I had anything say...and then I remembered her kiss.

Your authors notes said a hell of a lot. I loved this piece. It was so full of emotion and very sensual. I like that part that says...ready for the dance. That really made me smile. Beautifully written and well deserved of the honourable win. Personally, I would have given it gold for your authors comment alone.
