Explore
Freckles peppered against bronzed flesh like dots of cayenne fiery in a pan
Rising across cheekbones like a galaxy of the night
Covering the body, cascading across mountains and valleys of bone and muscle
Salty dew drops flecked against the skin radiating energetic heat
The way they sting across the lips and tongue
Warm breath shallow raising fine hairs pulsating heat against the universe around her
Every indentation of those fingertips
Ridges pressed firmly imprinting onto her skin
As if each line creates a trail to her destination
An exploration of sensation

Powerful sensory poem and last two lines top it off.
Yes.
Wonderfully descriptive lines all through the poem!

Our skins are our largest sensory organ. All of its ridges and valleys.
