Having done too much yesterday, trying to end the year with a clean house, I spent today a bit pensive, a bit sad. Where has this year gone? So, I decided to wind down the afternoon, the day, and the year with a nice cup of comfort.
Enjoy some poetry on this chilly afternoon, maybe with your own cup of cocoa. Go ahead. I’ll wait until you return from the kitchen.
HOT CHOCOLATE
Oh, how delightfully smooth
The delicate vapors
Wafting, floating, inhaled sweetly
Tantalizing tender buds.
Ecstasy parts company with intellect
Giddy satisfaction its only desire
Pray hold this infatuation at bay
Put such needfulness to bed.
For this heaven, so richly tempting,
Is pure bliss and blue flame
Always such pain in that first hot kiss
Be patient, my love.

THE ROSE
I dreamed I was a delicate flower
With petals of crimson and gold
Delight spilled from my heart
Like a sweet fragrance in summer
I dreamed of warm showers
Falling gently from a soft white sky
Each drop on my velvety petals
Turned into joyous laughter
I dreamed of being plucked
Desired, cherished, loved
Held forever in a tender embrace
I dreamed of things unspoken
I dreamed of you.

ROSES, HUGS, AND LOVE SONGS
They tell me roses are red
They tell me violets are blue
They tell me this is where I say
I love you.
Cheeks are rosiest in the winter
Tannest all summer long
Hugs are coziest beside a fire
As the radio plays our song.
