You gather me into you
Entangling limbs and
Tickling kisses on the neck.
.
Your breath tangles in my hair
Escaping through quivering tendrils
Trembling into the night.
.
Your heartbeats drum against my back
Exquisite timpani.
Time stops.

Oh, my. Yes.
Ah. Excellent.
Welcome to Acrosticville. Hope you’ll visit awhile, and be back soon! 🙂
Don’t write many of them, and sometimes when I do, I don’t point it out, but when I do… 😉
Love it!
Thanks!
Perfect, absolutely perfect.
Thank you.
Yet the time also passes so that the anticipation of another day sets in.
Or one falls asleep! 😉
This is wonderful with all of it’s shy words of love. Love your images.

Shy?
Hmm. Interesting.
All lovemaking is shy at some time.
Some lovemaking is wild, aggressive and passionate, so shy definitely doesn’t apply those times. Even in this poem, I’d say gentle or tender perhaps, but shy suggests nervousness or embarrassment which don’t apply here.
On the other hand, the reader bring his/her own story to what he/she reads, and only half the interpretation is what the poet/author leaves on the page.
I love anagrams! 😀
Me too. Today’s favourite: “Pots stop tops!” 3 anagrams that make a sentence. 🙂
Like this – I really like how you used the same word 3 times – with differing acrostics. Very cool:)
There are three basic meanings of yet, so I tried to encapsulate each of them Sort of. 😉
