I'm a little late with accolade and short one for a six, but wanted to say I like this for the homey warmth it projects. I think it probably reflects your home's welcoming atmosphere.

God bless, Dennis

This is a great poem Janet and your presentation makes it even better. My wife enjoys wine and chocolates, however, I've always been a beer drinker. You know us guys, beer and sports is a hard habit to break.

I enjoyed reading your poem very much, my friend...Bill

    Thank you Bill for your fun review. I do know what your mean. My husband and son-in-law are beer drinkers as well while my daughter and I like a nice glass of wine and chocolate - well chocolate - that's a must.

    Have a great day.

Me! Me! I like chocolate and chardonnay. Sounds like a great combination. You have a lovely description of your perfect day--adding the fire and poetry. An unbeatable combination. Excellent rhyme and flow. Very enjoyable and just right for a winter day. judi

I am not a lover of wine but can eat chocolate until the cows come home lol. Only, I can't at the moment as on a diet lol. Love the poem, though. I thought it was a nice poem and thank you for sharing.

    Thank you for your lovely review. I understand about the chocolate. But, I always have some in the freezer for that day when I just have to have a piece of chocolate. haha

I just love the imagery of this poem! Of course, it's partly because my husband and I enjoy really fine wine (both red and white!).

I love the similes here:
'Dark chocolate with chardonnay
is lovely like a rose.
Sweet chocolate is poetry--
fine Chardonnay is prose.'

Great post!

Bev

I loved the light and joyous message of your poem, the rhymes are just perfect, smooth and not forced. I like best the last stanza which served as the final clincher of the poem. Thanks for sharing this to us. All the best.

The photo matches your poem perfectly. Chocolate and white wine must make a nice combination. I liked the last stanza best, just the sound of it.

Hi, wonderful description and imagery. Very nice rhyme. Eating chocolate, sipping wine, and relaxing by the fire reading does sound like a truly perfect day.

In my opinion, a lovely poem, well constructed in form and fluid rhythm and rhyme movement - the presentation, including the image, is both striking and elegant...
