'a Wine Smell'

Wafts greeted me at the door already Dreaded going inside, not knowing If a clash between right and wrong Was on the schedule again It’s become a routine His manners replaced, Like his cologne Surpass by A wine Smell

Oh, my, you are a wine smell??? hahaha. (did you make HIM the wine smell?) Wait till you see MY wonderful anagram. I am so proud of it, but I have to think of a poem to do it justice. I enjoyed reading this and your little tribute to the OINKER> hahaha.

Isn't it amazing what the anagrams of our names contain? I really like your etheree. Had a boyfriend who was a drinker. When I smelled the liquor, I never knew what to expect from him. You conveyed this message so well. Wishing you success in the contest, Wilma! Love, Carolyn
