If your love is true
You will breathe a gentle sigh
As you read these words
And imagine lover's lips
Upon the nape of your neck.

When I see your face all the angels are shamed.

If a neck doesn't tingle after reading this, the lady is comatose. *G* Lovely write!

Beautiful seems to sum it up perfectly.
