Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

May Afternoon

a little sip of wine
out on the balcony
a balmy spring breeze
stirs lilac blooms
diffusing perfume free

enraptured in a novel
through space and time
fine line between
reality and fantasy

DM Babbit July 18, 2019 at 1:27 PM Nice, so do we live in fantasy or reality? DMB Line Gauthier July 18, 2019 at 3:43 PM Most of us are delusional so I think you know the answer to that one. LOL
