Long fingernails that tantalize and tease
drip ice cold water onto fiery skin,
small frozen cube melts in a deathly squeeze,
white freezing breath exhales from deep within.
Cascading frosted water slides between
ice massaged into muscles once relaxed,
where other cooling rivulets have been
contort and strain, sub zero upto max.

Wow you certainly are coming at things from a very different direction now and well done too.

imagery brilliant
Hiya.
I really like the imagery you have used here. I especially like the description of the deathly squeeze and the feeling of ice being massaged into muscle. What I like about this is, as I read it, I could feel myself in that position - In fact, I felt cold!
well done, once again.

Oh boy
What wonderful thoughts you have planted in this old SOBs head poet. I say where is she and bring it on. lol
