Shiver

You transmit in alphabet icicle candles Dipped into crystal and crimson wine Drawn with a sensual needlepoint tracing From the nape of my neck to the base of my spine.

You send me in seizures of rapid breathing Chilled in a fjord where midnight snows, Massaged with a touch of frost and volcano From the top of my head to the tips of my toes. I shiver despite your body temperature, Tremor though heat rages out of your skin; Anticipate love with a soul full of certainty Yet shiver for life is about to begin...
