clink glass filled
lingered look eyes to eyes
glass to lips slow
a sip of
liquid redness
read my mind through my eyes
what do I think
lips moist
a taste of blackberry
a hint of cinnamon
slowly grape silkiness
flows over my tongue
you watch me I watch you
cherry plum
warm spice
deep in colour succulent
tannins seduce my mouth
trickle down my throat
fruit that
rouses
warming as it enters me
fruits of berries elegant
dusty earthy tones
perfectly paired
like us
Oh wow. Very sultry. Love it.
π Thank you so much.
Wonderful sonic qualities here Mumsy–a poem that one feels with the ears…
luscious!
oooer I do like your description also thank you Johnny – appreciated π
‘…dusty earthy tones

Such a lovely sentiment!
I’m sure I’ve missed lots of your posts this week – haven’t been able to read any blogs for several days as I’ve been so busy. Just have a bit of time now, so I’m trying to catch up on my favourite bloggers. Hope you’ve been well and work is going better – not getting you down so much π
Thank you for saying so Gabriela, you mean to tell me that you have let ‘life’ get in the way of your blogging? π Thank you for visiting, yes I am well, thank you also for asking. The job is going ok now, had a couple of talks with the GM – she really is quite lovely and takes the time to listen to me vent.. π¦ It was more of an issue with the G/F that I work with.. but I am hoping we can get back on track again..just a bit of adjusting was needed. π
must have been a Shiraz… π
Hmmmm nup π
lovely.. I can almost taste the wine
Don’t ‘almost’ ‘DO’ π thank you Audra π
Pinot Noir? It doesn’t matter,because it was red. Your words were luscious…just like the wine. Great poem.
Aww thanks Beck and nup lol ..and yes doesn’t matter it was a red which is yummy. Thank you for your kinds words π xx
I am not a wine drinker…but even I could get a sense of the taste on my lips and tongue.
And the mood setting was slikly too nod nods.
Well my job was done it seems, if you could taste when you don’t drink wine.. I am impressed!
Glad you enjoyed sweety π Thank you. xx
Not a wine drinker? WTF? Just kidding….good for you:)
No Katie isn’t – hell I a most certainly am π xxx
Definitely made me think of a hearty, fruity, full bodied Shiraz… Oooh blackberries, and pomergranates came to mind. I don’t think they mix the two or I haven’t seen it, but I definitely smelled it, tasted the notes and so badly wanted a glass. What a fantastic and sensual poem…that you could make me taste it,Mumsy…
xox
Thank you also MM π Hmm I took a wee bit of poetic licence – it was a Cab Sav..but I thought of different wineries etc, so technically probably not all in the one mix…though that would be luverly π I am so glad you ‘tasted’ and enjoyed honey. xx:-)
an ode to wine, I love it.
ah yes to wine and other things… π xxx thank you ‘I’
