Another Perfect Day

Neville

Another Perfect Day

 

Tell me darling,

are we okay ..

Yes, of course,

she replied,

we are perfect ..

What could be

better than this ..

Sipping cold

beers on some

remote

desert island

and all without

Wi-Fi or

internet access ..

While we

fine dine upon

green figs

and these tiny

black olives ..

Not to mention

us watching

the fishermen

mending

their nets and

fighting off

all of the gulls ..

Then there’s

me of course,

catching

an occasional

whiff from

a perfect grey

smoke ring ..

As it rises from

one of your

rare gauloises bleus ..

        life's at its most resplendent
        when anchored
        in our everyday hassles aside grim
        cloudy clouds
        see, that's when the efficacy
        of our smoke rings
        chime a Time of veracity, in our
        intentions and shared
        amiably mundane, undefined serenity
        (just love the ambience of this poem Hyung
        it puts a flavour of a sharp margarita
        in our tongues)
        a delightful sip, in a read

          What could possibly be better than that .. thank you brother Mek .. Neville

          What ? she wanted rough - was this a message to me or you? She spoilt it when she suggested there might be a crack there. Still, "There is a crack, a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in."
          Smoked Gauloises bleus but never achieved perfect smoke rings.....

            its all in the relationship & action between the tongue and the cheeks that ultimately determines the symmetry .. and of course practice makes perfect .. cheers

            Do I detect a playful smile on her lips, as she rcounts the delights of Another Perfect Day ? But then I suppose, it's the male way. I think you smiled as well, it was that obvious. Good write!

            • Neville



              I'm afraid I still am .. and believe me, your visit helped .. thanks Bella .. Neville
