Drunken Brio

Rendered your elixir within flowing fire turned my head till flames got higher 'neath vapors' influence lustfully burning, imbibed upon insatiable blushed lips feverish craving ignited darkly melting hours intoxicated of ravenously absorbed flamings zealous ardor pulsing beyond desires, hungry to the bone poured of unrelenting fervor skin soaked in mania's intensified voracity, unrestrained cries out resonating wanton tongues dizzying gypsy soul dripping sinfully impassioned liquid quenching glow farther impulsive madness, scent of mounting sensitivity's rush marinating 'neath rhythmical torrid undulations gushing through every explosively satiated vessel, breathlessness melded 'tween kindled ascendancy exploiting drunkenness of volatile ardent spirits “Drink wine. This is life eternal. This is all that youth will give you. It is the season for wine, roses and drunken friends. Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.” Omar Khayyám

Wow! Drunken in lustful desire and passion! Reminds me of Bacchus, love, wine and wanton intoxication...soaking in poetic language. Red wine for me, pls...in moderation:) Regards // paul

I'm floored by your response, Bacchus, what an honor to be in the same breath. Thrilled you enjoyed it Paul! :)

Well, I'm always ready for a good glass of wine (or two). This one knocks it out of the park Paloma and the cool thing about this poem is, no hangover the next morning. Love it.

I used to imbibe but gave it all up when my children were born. This is a really fun read, Paloma:)

Funny that, usually people start drinking when they have kids. :) Thanks Daniel.
