Cabernet
Smooth with carefree foreplay
Bold and aggressive, warm and scarlet
Full body within your hands, thoughts of a harlot
Gentle is her body, subtle, tender and solid
Deep, soft and velvety, rouge flavors that abound
Fruit flavors dance around
Pleasure found

The form you used is interesting I'll have to steal it from you sometime. The sensual feelings pour out of this poem like a glass of wine. thank you for your entry.

Excellent
Ohhh, that sounds delicious for a wine, but this poem also sounds like you are using the wine has a metaphore for a woman, we come in many different flavors, each unique in their own way, no two the same, maybe similar but never exactly the same, that is why is often so tempting for men to sample other wines, a taste or craving for a new exotic flavor. i could be wrong about the metaphor, if so please let me know. Excellent write my friend, thank you for sharing and keep them coming.

I am a red wine lover, but I prefer a nice heavy port...you, however, make this Cabernet a sweet, sweet experience. I've not read anything so truly flavorful before...my mouth is watering...very good writing, to make me want a glass of this 'rouge vin'...mmmmmm...Peace, Rhonda

I really have to get into port. never ever.....yet. Got to spend the money. They ain't cheap. I'm really a Shiraz, Malbec lover but a Bordeux or Heavy cab can get my attention. Thanks Rhonda......Peeeeeeeeeeeeeace!!
