fermenting in your interval

fermenting in your interval 

 

 

spill the hard cider over the edge

of my trembling tongue,

apple blossom kisses

 

you are my nectar

liquid eyes, my comfort

osculation, my drunken whim in dreams

 

as i undo the lid of you

and take a sip of 

oblivion.

I miss all your work J
I dont know how i survived without it

this is so beautiful

She is like this sweet escape
Every part of you feels that with her you find it all

to want more

Gorgeous

Your description of the lascivious pleasures of fermented apples caused me to experience a premonitory moistening that overflowed my nether lip. (with inebriated apologies to Charles Lamb)
Oh! By the way J, I enjoyed the poem too

Describes wonderfully an alcoholic's love for their muse, longing for their lover's sweet kiss to intoxicated once more, also brought back memories of reading Cider with Rosie by Laurie Lee. Nice one J

The words and images are deliriously intoxicating, Jacob. Love and even lust could make us feel this way.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

thank you gabrielle...appreciate your words.

This is like an ode to a lover, from an alcoholic to his drink. There's an eroticism to it that makes it all the more easier to understand why so many find it so difficult to let go. Love within a bottle easily dilutes the soul, for a moment, for a night, then the drink must be drunk again. Very nice.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

Expressive write. Vivid and clear images. The last line reads so good.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

thank you for your kind words, Vanessa.

[Lydia Shutter]

OH MY....the sensuality drips from every line of this one. Seductive, hinting at the erotic, and elegantly titillating! Lydi**

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i can taste the liquer

[Willard Wells]

And after a couple more sips that tremble goes away as you relax and slip away into your beautiful world.

Yep, I can feel it. Nicely done. Have a great day, young man.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

thank you, Willard, on the poem and also for making me feel younger for a moment.
