Was the pouring and the snoring
that did bring to slurring lips
the ignoring of that roaring
as my stagger almost trips.

This I ponder in my wander
as a saunter brings to eyes
such a venture of adventure
and the thirst of hallowed prize.

For my roaming and the combing
of the flowing waters rush
brings to hearing and the rearing
of a roses soft red blush.

And the moment brings to ferment
the enjoyment of the vine
as the vintage does employ that
which the swagger gains of wine.

For the bubbles lead to trouble
and the grapes bleed ever sweet
till the bowel brings out a rumble
from the head down to the feet.

And the vision in decision
sees the twain of souls in view
as the mission of revision
speaks most loudly of the brew.

A most excellent write Barry!
Love the rhyming here..rolls off the tongue so smoothly.

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul

Barry,
Rolls off the tongue from out the gobblet to down the gullet. That makes for a russet
faucet. LOL enjoyed

Well, I'd have to say that your poem most definitely is not in need of a revision!

~ and the rhythmic cadence was down-right lyrical!

For the bubbles lead to trouble

Not here... they led to pure delight!!! Replace that stagger with a swagger, my friend... this is deserving! *S*
