Nervous moment

Benjamin Morrow 1986 (Cheshire)

My hand shakes,
Heart palpitates,
Dances and ships,
Perspiration drips,
First kiss,
Shared bliss,
Emotions abound,
Alacrity found,
Love is coming,
Chest is drumming,
Impulsive sparks,
Electrical arks,
Holding forever,
Groaning endeavour,
Subtle reaction,
Obvious distraction,
Now here,
No fear.
