Repartee

Scent of ristretto and apple butter
pour whispers out unto readying
eve. Your eyes catechize as though
smoldering embers ―

Stirred, my heart pens down verse
as misty-eyed morn locks lips with
blushful night. You, and you alone
serve as incitation to bitter-sweet
poet’s muse.

    The first line, with its contrast in food stuff, was quite arresting. I think of apple butter as a sweet, homely sort of food stuff, while ristretto feels far more sophisticated.

    ..

    1. Sanaa says:

      Thank you so much, Jim 😀 so glad you liked it ❤️

  32. What can I say, but ‘yummy!’? 😀
