chardonnay, everyday



















sparkling, tingling
like the sun in your eyes
rising, surprising
a million highs

breathe it in
watch it glow
shut your eyes
feel it flow

a perfect tulip
clean chilled skin
strong slim stem
designed to win

reflecting rainbows
fresh fruity smiles
smelling like thirst
succulent style

sipping a storm
crystal clear
toasting the world
look,
summer's here

chardonnay and summer, somehow goes together like...
er, wine and glass!

Clever concoction. Not much of a wine connoisseur, but I feel like I'm missing out:)

Not much of a chardonnay person... prefer my beer in summers. They have lovely hoppy beers in summer here.

Lovely last stanza to end it. Like always.

Guess I fall in the beer category, but the poem is worthy of a toast!!

How about red? On a star-spangled summer night? Full-bodied? :)

Loved this one.
I could imagine a flowery-feminine-light-sparkly dress that drapes around in layers and pleats itself softly. :)

cj: try licking it off your fingertips sometime..

aparna: now that's a poem in itself! Thought I'd give the red a break for a while- keep it clean, white,delicate like the picture above. :)
