Arousal

Aroused

I sink into you

immersion

you are heat of a hot bath

envelop me

impart your fragrance

to my body - soul

I hold my breath

savor your touch head to toe

euphoric in the heat

you bring my senses

the loveliest parts of you

caressing like

a million fingertips

leave sensate trails

electric is my seething soul

astounding, you,

my pyrotechnic reverie

to know you in and out

around - about

your burning eyes

decry your cool

love's luscious fool

your passion burns

so much like mine

you are here-there

everywhere I turn

I want to say

in soft low whisper

for your ears only

I feel and love

your arousal

Very nice, Steve very nice indeed. I felt like I was reading a symphony of feelings complete with a crescendo and melody of emotions.

Seems we are having some pyrotechnic displays of a different kind the last few nights here on the pond. It seems my neighbors have decided to celebrate the Fourth for several days. (:

Lines 13-17 are my favorite part. Your description of the sensations of the nervous system makes this poem richer and lifts it out of the "confessional" category.
