Writer's Block Wednesday (#30)

The word for this week is "bottle". Here's what I came up with... relax, reflect and enjoy.

Just a Spoonful

Fine wine

ages in a bottle

Jim Croce

sang about saving time in a bottle

A poetic love struck woman

writes a note

puts it in a bottle

seals it tight

puts it in the ocean

hoping one day

it will wash up on a beach

to be found by her one and only soul mate

Talented people

with extreme patience and

awesome hand eye coordination

build intricate ships in bottles

And there are a few

lucky divas

with bodies

shaped like Coke bottles

If I could bottle anything

it would be the

undefinable pleasure

of your lips

pressed against my neck

and your hands

running down my bare back

But instead of a bottle

I would seal it in

a honey jar

carry it with me everywhere

and enjoy a spoonful a day

any more than that

and I surely

would not be able to function....
