Mistletoe Brief

Posted by lenchenelf on December 4, 2009 - 01:17
from the ABC set Doodles

Nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, cloves,
lace red wine on tiny stove.
Heady, heavy spices brew;
cheeks aglow, cranberry hue.
Yuletide goblet raised to lips,
trace small stain with fingertips.
Tingling tickle, liquid bliss,
case made for a stolen kiss?

Lovely and evocative, although definitely unseasonal for one living in Australia.
