Glasses of wine filled to brim
Our wide rimmed goblets – clink
Pierced olives take a calm swim
I give it an unforgettable wink
A slow sip to savor the taste
A rolling around of fine liquid
Swallowing at even pace
Ahhhh! It tickles the boy’s ribs
You dipped a finger and stirred
Touched your lips, then slipped
Without saying a damn word
you conveyed the suggestive tip
Again our searching eyes met
While thoughts gathered
Subliminal messages prepped
Another wine bottle ordered
The mood began to undress
influenced by roaming spirits
Conversation evenly caressed
Ears acted on provoked secrets
Cheque paid; waiter tipped
We both stood, just for a bit
Balance measured with steps
Thoughts lay outstretched
