Tasty...
You tell me small secrets, touch me in a special way, laugh at private things. These tokens are worth little But I keep them all Stored in my most hidden place. With lover's alchemy I have mixed these things and let them blend with echoes of what I have given you and so, deep within me I keep the essence of you. Copyright (c) 1984, Ian Thorpe first published by Commonword in the anthology "Love Under Leaden Skies."
