Lift the lid on Colourful opportunism Take your pick I chose you At first glance Cranberry dreams Soaked in liqueur A dollop of cream From the same maker We all are and yet Shelved by label Aroma drifts Scented desire Lifts my mood Day and night Yet never to taste Admire the flavours On wrists, nape of neck Dab on lips A pity to waste Something so beautiful Perched high with only A window view

Count the stars of heaven
