Tequila Mockingbird Rainglow

Slow pressed... sigh's blissed...

Sunlife
sweat beads blister
crushed  ice  glinting
in rainglow
crisp  air  steams
highball  glass
low  ceilings
down  two  ounces
blue  agave  tequila
Aztec  dreams
Guadalajara  desert 
sweet  crème  de  menthe
corsican  colorless  white
sweet  flirtation
lime - scented  lips
slow  pressed 
sighing  blissed 
fingers  dripping
lingering  soft  soda
quiver  and  quake
slow  deliberate 
replay ecstasy 
swallow…

Author's Note

I have been instrumental in banning bottled water on the set. It hasn't gone that well with the crew... so I replaced it with tequila. - Hugh Laurie

Very sensual. Loved the short lines, but are you really mixing tequila with creme de menthe? Really;) Great write.

[An owl on the moon]

Ah, yes! Here is one official recipe... if you need a warm up in Canada. 1 1/2 oz tequila... 3/4 oz green creme de menthe... juice of 1 lime. :)

I like the quote and the poem. Beautiful photo gave life to your words. I like those places where the rum and tequila was cheap. Beautiful woman near. A nice journey with your outstanding poetry.

Thank you... Smiling... and wishing you a very intoxicating weekend, dear friend. Just what the chill autumn nights call for. :)

As always you're very welcome it is really a pleasure to read your writing you are a very good poet I think a hot buttered rum might be good on a chilly night but it's warmer here I think we should be weather forecasters LOL

[lee von cleef]

find a root ? "Cho Cho pas te " the old men sip it fter it has been in the Tequila a while (a month or so) good for the belly and takes the bite out of the drink. your poem is sexy.

[An owl on the moon]

[Great Aunt Astri]
