The red or the white
Or the hard hard truth
Matters not to me
Which you choose
I’ll pretend to sip
Looking over the rim
My most sultry gaze
On your beloved face
And then we’ll laugh
Because candlelight
Feels silly to us –
Aren’t the Braves on tonight?

ReplyDeleteApparently, you bring your own spark to the fire.
ReplyDeleteHow 'bout the Cards or the Twins? I share your passion for baseball, I also love wine! Nice job.
ReplyDeleteWine and baseball don't mix. You have made the right choice! Now beer and baseball....
ReplyDeleteThis was very well done. Vb
So true, I have to be in the mood for wine or it just sends me asleep.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I'm not a big fan of wine either. I like this little playful vignette.
ReplyDeleteAh brilliant write, I love it ...I am not always in the mood for wine either.
ReplyDeletenice piece - and refreshingly honest
ReplyDeletewine is something i can take or leave too thank you
ReplyDeleteSULTRY! wheeew-
ReplyDeleteI would love to be that- like I used to think I was... and maybe back then I was!
Thanks for the reminder.
Oh, leave the wine for me. Ha!
ReplyDeletei'm with you!
ReplyDeleteA down to earth approach there!
ReplyDeleteIt's football that I have to watch...but I like my wine though. Great poem.
ReplyDeleteI. Love. This. (and you!)
ReplyDeleteYou are so cute. I love your honesty, Bug.
ReplyDeleteWonderful write! Wine for me is Christmas dinner or special nights out - otherwise lager please!
ReplyDeleteAnna :o]
ha, ha, ha, ha.
ReplyDeleteI once read some survery that said 70% of wives would prefer cheesecake to more "sultry activities" so I guess that most likely goes for preferring wine too! :)
so many men would love your version of romance! :)
ReplyDeleteBut Jannie Funster, I want the cheesecake, sultry activities AND the wine!
I loved it! But I must admit I do love my wine. Rarely in a goblet though. I like the Italian wine glasses that resemble juice glasses.
ReplyDeleteI love the way your poetry caresses and loves on the relationship between you and Dr. M...
ReplyDeleteit always makes me think, and often makes me smile or laugh!
But where lies romance?
