Wine and love

十里荷

Holding a glass, shaking it gently

A drinker’s smile colored the wine

Crimson glimmering inside, and outside on cheeks

In, beam of her eyes lightly stirring the liquor

Out, a sensitive heart seeking  love

“Thanks for giving me!” She whispered

A grateful chant echoed around

Enough is enough, inside out and outside in

Live an ordinary life

Is equally fun, if there is love

Sun shines on you, and also on me

Lights pour on gold, and also on rocks

Rain beats leaves and also dirt

Balance in time and space

We live, never skipped any yesterday

Won’t miss any today and tomorrow

Love stays somewhere

Ready to give

Patiently, in a unseen shadow

She thanks for she can thank

Like this chalice of wine, Lucky to be drank

And we are lucky for we are able to drink

Wine and drinker reached a deal

Be together, both fulfilled a meaning to heal

Turning the chalice, she smiled to the liquor

Whispered :  “No no no,

I am not drunk! It is real.”

All the coloured liquid went inside now, glass is

Empty, desire burning in her stomach

In mind, a voiceless song is echoing:

“In love, we survive.

 I cannot live, without love.”

Life’s going on, one chalice

Finished, another one fills in

Just like, love

An ordinary her in an ordinary night

Wine and love, colored her cheeks and glass

A night before dream

Sneaked by, she slept on

A fluffy couch, along

In dream, she hugs him

An only love

Chalice slipped off her hand

Fell on the carpet end

With no sound
