Quenched With Infatuation

manic fixation
     revealing love’s devotion
           raptured by your touch
  never knew thirst until you
                  quenched with infatuation

manic fixation... thirst quenched. An excellent tanka and use of the two words. A winner, I say. :)

Very nice. I especially liked “raptured by your touch”.

This is a lovely, sweetly-sensual write... I love it, Laura!
