Tenderly

A SENSUAL approach UNSEALS the door to her heart. Her cheeks turn red as warmth flows in. His fingers play upon her skin. Titillating ... teasing ... they take their time. ---------------------------------- Anagram~Couplet~Alliteration 18 th December 2015 Contest: 4 Lines Sponsor: Silent One placed 2nd

Wow .... another good one! I love how simple this is and yet leaves a big impact. You leave me in the spot where I'm wanting more, yet at the same time enjoy the mystery of staying put. Excellent!
