a wisp of a smile on her face
she drew him near for last embrace
it would be faint that he would think
they were to have another drink

she led him on as lovers do
made him think their love was true
he could always be contented fool
she would never break the golden rule

she kissed him on the cheek so light
that all would feel his pain that night
his greed that love would soon be gone
the man had brought some perion

she could see that might her eyes revealed
to him her love were bells that peeled
a dirge for loss in passion woe
another drink and he would go

but the bells would play inside his head
drive him to their passion bed
where sickness wallow in their lust
and stench so vile of broken trust

and who was giving last embrace
who was giving bitter taste
love was all they hoped to find
each had others on their mind

a case to anyone who can tell me how to spell perion i am too glued to the computer to get up and go find out

Nicely done, Walt....and it's Dom Perignon. I'll clean off a shelf in anticipation of the coming case.

I wish I had Dom Perignon
To toast your poem and drink 'til dawn!

So here's to you, my cyper friend,
Your poem you give, my eyes I lend.

To read 'bout love with wisp of smile
Has filled my eve with class and style.

A toast to you, Dom Wayoutwalt!
OOPS, champagne's gone! It's not my fault!

For sometimes when the Darkness falls, we must surrender, take what is ours, and give what we can, and always remember love is somewhere waiting...
