Aperitif

Neville

Aperitif

 

Although it’s such a long way down

and even after all this time ……………

maybe

it’s not all that surprising ……………….

She still

tastes of sunlight rising …………………

and just

as hot as peppermints and green tea

she remains

yet to be slowly sipped ……………………

and correspondingly savoured ………….

      These are words of the richness of maturity. Reassuring closeness of familiarity and rewarding warmth of mutual pairing.
      Your well chosen words bring forth the sensual with a grace.

                I absolutely love the sensory synaesthesia you create with invite with lines like:
                "She still

                tastes of sunlight rising"
