Richard Lamoureux Poet Couplet

Glass and Wine

Allow your thoughts to mix in with mine
I can be the glass you can be the wine

As you are swirled all the aromas show
The complexity of you starts to grow

Like all good wines I realize you need air
Your magic emphasized others aware

You intoxicate a wonderful gift
A little bit of you gives hearts a lift

As I am tipped your beauty does flow
Not too quickly it's better to be slow

Once you have been tasted others will see
You are the words that flow out of me

Kim Van Breda May 7, 2013 at 6:37 AM Fanatstic Analogy !! Really enjoyed this. Of course on the literal side-- being a wine lover myself xx Richard Lamoureux May 7, 2013 at 6:51 AM Have you ever tried Okanagan wines from British Columbia? Mission Hill and Summerhill wines are both amazing. I live in Kelowna which is in the heart of wine country on lake Okanagan in the desert. Most people don't realize there's a hot spot in Canada.

Timothy Hicks May 6, 2013 at 11:47 PM A lot of wine and grape inspired writes lately! The whole poem was nice, but I really liked the third couplet. Like all good wines you need air... personal space is a must in any good relationship! Beautiful poem. Richard Lamoureux May 7, 2013 at 6:52 AM I think Freddis to blame with his Grapes of Wrath contest.

Carol Eastman May 6, 2013 at 6:24 PM Tremendously original and imaginative. It's simple, beautiful, and a work of art. It'll be one of my favorites. Richard Lamoureux May 6, 2013 at 6:59 PM Aww thanks Carol.
