in the slow disrobing of each by the other , in the wandering and lingering kisses and licks that each offered the others body , in the cooing and the avowals and the giggles and the moans and the laughter , in the eventual and inevitable and inexorable merging of one flesh into the other and in the deliciously slow but determined climb to a final dissolution and the breathless graceful glide back to earthin this instinctive sequence of myriad actions and intentions that was finally a single action and intention , in all these seconds and minutes and hours of gifts given , gifts received that was but one prolonged instants gift , both given and received , they found the physical embodiment of their love , their most ancient longing , now granted never to be taken away .
