Consecration

You place your hands on me

Your warm breath in my ear and I shudder

Ecstasy stalks me with each line your fingers draw upon me

Oh! That those lines forever cross my skin!

My breasts, electric with your touch –

A channel to my heart

A conduit to my soul

You fill my spirit with joy and wonder

Refreshed at the sacred font

Built only to hold these two hearts

Baptized anew in this pure love

No prayer has said a word great enough

No preacher reached his hand as close to God

No hymnal shared a song of comfort

That so closely touches this partnered ease

Consecrated in happiness
