"vintage kisses"

I love when your kisses taste
like wine, and I can pretend
it's the wine that has got me so drunk,
but to drink kisses from your lips
is to open a bottle so deep
it will never run low.

warm, and soft and rich,
like sweet cream and velvet
cold:

your mouth

is chilled from chardonnay,
or is it the evening breeze pushed
through tall, old trees

as the light clings to us
in rays that oak has steeped
greenish-gold
