Lured by the label,
wrung by the words,
reckless, I sped
past the warning.

Peruse the mixture,
exalt ideal the harvest,
subtly ripen a taste.

While handling
the corkscrew
I ponder the cork.

Better, I suppose,
melting in the
intoxicating liquid
of your desire

than lingering
white spines
frozen in a cube.

Ahhhh, what better way to warm a chill, than from the inside, out--sip slowly and savor.

(smiles) Oh Richard, I cou;dn't agree with you more, to have it all flowing through your bloodstream is much more enlightening than to lick it like an icecube, this is wonderful, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Richard, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

I really like this, but I didn't think it had anything to do with drinking.

I enjoy your poems, according to my own interpretation of them. Especially this one; it makes me grin.

Thanks for sharing your talent with us

Warm Regards, Pat

The fifth stanza leaves me begging the question of your intent, but I will wait to see what others say, and see if I can figure it out for myself...

suffice to say, you always write thinkers...

What a perfect verse! You really have a way of reaching to the reader and leaving them wanting more. I'm greedy.....
