Now only an inspired mind could have come up with this... so much passion in so few words. If it went for another line or two my poor old heart would need another beta blocker.

I’m grinning at your comment, Paul. I’ll keep you in mind next time I write something similar and remember not to take it around another curve. ;-)

You've described the feeling of intimacy that comes with love and tenderness. Hope everyone gets that feeling often and with a kind partner.

This one brings to mind the femme fatale Lin, I (think it’s the spider silk reference) us guys are suckers to their seductive prowess, regardless of the consequences, a very compelling monoku, cheers David

Dear Lin, In just a few words, you’ve created an evocative picture of intimacy and tenderness. The imagery of your flesh being likened to “spider-spun silk” under his delicate touch is both sensual and delicate. It seems to capture the essence of vulnerability and the exquisite sensation of being touched by someone we hold dear. Lin, you eloquently speak to the intricacies of human connection and the beauty found in moments of intimacy. - Blessings Daniel

Daniel, your thoughts are as eloquently expressed as you felt the sensuous words of my lines were written. There really is more to capture by showing instead of telling. Merci beau coup, doux poète
