Kisses her closed eyelids, cheeks;
breathes warmly into the well of her ear,
catches the lobe between his teeth,
gently pulls; runs opened lips slowly
downward to her shoulder; she shivers;
counts the vertebrae of her neck with the tip
of his tongue, and beneath the collar of her blouse;
a lizard with electric feet scuttling down
the length of her spine; she opens her eyes;
a momentary shimmering of the air between her
and the window, then focussing, looks out onto
the field like the small exhilarations of her skin
are blooming there; his arms around her,
his fingertips kissing her still.
