Rendezvous

Radio’s playing jazz. Red wine is poured in flutes, Ribeye steak; in oven, Rose petals are scattered. Rediscovering us. Romance is in the air, Ready set go, my love. Contest:Pleiades R Sponsor: Kim Merryman 04-15-2021

'Red wine is poured in flutes' -- incredibly poetic AND reminiscent of a really gripping period-piece sci-fi novel by Ray Bradbury, titled 'The Martian Chronicles.' You brought me back all the way to its 1951 publishing date with this wonderful poem, Alexis. (Used to teach a special 'sci-fi' lite course in a private high school in the 1990's). Thank you! :) gw

Have you ever rad Asimov. I read al his books. Pity he died at a crucial point, just when Trevise had found Earth.

Nicely done Alexis. You should make this into a card for Valentines Day and give it to your loved one. God Bless, JB

I'll skip the red wine and steak and just go with it with the music. Just being sassy and naughty. What a romantic poem. Way to go.
