FOUR ROSES

anda one anda two...

He taught me how to take Four Roses,

"Roll it over your tongue," says he,

"Really taste it, peel back the layers."

I drink it slow, thinking 'bout him and me...

Finished the bottle, feeling like Chinaski.

Feeling like rolling him over my tongue instead.

The way he says "Caramel" just does me.

I'll never get him out of my head.

"Roll it on your tongue, eyes closed, swallow slow...

Count all the layers...Caramel is my favorite."

I'm in love. 

Help.

Kill me dead.

I love him,

This Man.

This Awesome Poet.

Eternity,
The very best life has to offer is shared sensuality... If we could only forget all "The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune," stayed in our soft nests, and lived creatively, it would be like getting past the angels and their flaming swords to rediscover Eden.

That's beautiful, Vol.
I truly enjoyed the Four Roses. Thanks for the extra hint. It was so lovely.
