Fluid of Verse

Spilling forth,

Puddleing

As if they were squeezed

From hearty

And eager

Berries

Languishing robustly…

Yet earnestly seeking

To renew and reinvigorate

Senses previously

Scarred by

Inadequacies,

Rooted in soils

Of verbal confusion

And tended…

By the

Rambling profusion

Of pointed satire…

Contained…

At least temporarily,

In vessels of glass

And awaiting

The consumption

Of lyrically laden

Prose…

The fragrant

And richly appointed liquid

Blends succinctly

And convincingly

With the

Carefree trappings

Of sprawling verse…

Reinforcing, again…

The notion that

Wine is indeed…

Liquid poetry.

Rick!  Love this write!  Your imagery is wonderful and definitely flows fluidly as you described imbibing "liquid poetry".

And the more you drink, the smarter you get! Wine is the drink of the wealthy. Though some wines are sold cheaply the really good ones come with large price tags. Your poem (to me)speaks about love and life. You must choose to live it or it chooses to live you! Good job, Anthony
