Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Kiss of Death

KISS OF DEATH

full-bodied wine

felicitous lipstick

smile glistens in goblet

gregarious sips

~

rogue wave

of purple grape

plenipotentiary drink

steals Juliet’s kiss

Gregory Richard Barden November 10, 2017 at 7:07 PM Oh, I love everything about this, Kim, and how can one go wrong with "Uncle Bill"?? Gorgeous write - congrats on your win, my friend! :-) <3 Gregory Richard Barden November 11, 2017 at 9:08 PM Oh, I'm sorry - we always called William Shakespeare "Uncle Bill" in college, as an endearment ...

Freddie Robinson Jr. November 7, 2017 at 8:53 AM Cool poem, Kim. Plenipotentiary, eh. Just showing off your literary chops, but it's all good, even as this poem is. Mighty fine poetry. Love and joy always. Kim Rodrigues November 7, 2017 at 9:22 AM LOL! I find that when I have looked up and used a word in past poems, it will come to me again! Thanks so much! <3
