Pouring the Wine |

White wine and cheese to slice and taste with you, Give me each bit of your day in review, Nibble the sharp with the tiny bites too Quick gulping down another glass or two. Your eyes slow close and you’re still talking on Till it’s just a mumble of the events Then silent words as your waking is done, I’m be well informed of the day you spent. Carrying to a softer resting place, Quilted comfort of warm blanket cover, I am struck by the beauty of your face, And above you gazing I do hover. I could stand there watching all of the night, But I must go now and turn out the light. |

Make that white zin, and you've got a taker! Seriously, this likes me very much, so I think I shall tuck it safely into my library, it's a Keeper! |

Noah, Your words, so sweet and thoughtful are great encouragement to such a beginning writer like me. Kay, Listening is so easy to do, my problem is being mezmerized by beauty. Both of form and of the way the words are said. And yes, it’s something that needs to be done, for how else can you expect to please if you don’t listen to what they say. Sunshine, I’m not too knowledgeable on wines, I just buy what sounds good, or what is advised goes with the meal. If you wanted White Zin, that is what it would be. But I am unsure of what you mean by Library. But I take it it’s a high compliment. Bill |

*sigh* a sonnet that flows with the tender feelings that she inspires in your heart. Moments spent over a glass of wine leave a sweetness behind that gives flight to a romantic soul. Lovely. **hug** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Startime It’s easy to be tender with someone that’s loving and tender, I am just thankful for the times I do have. I’m not much of a drinker but I can pour, I’m not much or a talker so I listen. I’m not so sure of what romance is, but I know what I like. Bill |

Bill, to help answer your question to Sunshine, the "library" can be found when you are responding to a person's poem, and down below, but just over where you hit "submit" are four boxes. You can click on those, and enter a poem you would like to go back to in your own personal "library". Then when you want to review some favored poets/poems, you need simply click on Private Library which you should see at the top of the page in the dark blue bars. And that, Sir, is where Keepers are stored! |
