Let It Breathe
Sweet kiss of sun and passion’s soil
wrapped in twisted lover’s tryst
love’s essence captured in a moment
blessed by sea-scent moistened mist
cradled in long arms of family
hidden from frail season’s view
undusted days of aging darkness
ancient hope of purplish blue
wisdom clear of sediment
locked in dry-corked mystery
sipped, served, and savored sparingly
lingering hint of history.
