Bernard Chan Poet Tritina

Winelight

The glass of wine drinks a murmur of light,
                               dusts tablecloth with a reflected blush,
                                    a glow of cerise on a linen face.

                          Garnet slowly seeps from the crisp white face
                           as you sip wine brushed with a swirl of light.
                             Across your cheeks unfurls a furtive blush.

                           Your lush lashes fan the flame of your blush,
                                  pull a veil vermillion over your face,
                          touch your neckline with a faint rouge of light,

                    and hushed light swoons from the blush on your face.

Such a beautiful and intimate write and I adore your spectacular title as well. Superb poetry my friend! Bernard Chan December 9, 2017 at 7:22 PM Nothing like a good glass of wine to get one waxing poetic . . . the thought of having a good glass of wine anyway, as alcohol shuts down my brain, so I usually can't write a word after a night out :) Thank you, Susan! :)
