Phyllis Babcock Poet Rhyme

Sweet Nectar

I caress you with utter delight
As you sparkle in soft light
Your red color velvety smooth
Lifts my spirits when I brood
Fragrant aroma as I sip
Sweetest nectar on my lips
You swirl and twirl in my glass
Your color and taste first class
Succulent and very fine
I drink my glass of red wine.

Keith Bickerstaffe December 5, 2015 at 10:12 AM Hi Phyl! Some neat personification here, (if that's the word I want!) the denouement doesn't come until the very last line which is as it should me. A smooth cadence with super couplet rhyming! Well done my dear!! Best wishes, Keith 7
