the love bird glass

the milk so much sweeter
the truth so much easier
from the inside of
the love bird glass


fill it with joy
or pour out sorrows
hands in prayer surround
the love bird glass


listen to the rain
hit the roof like a heartbeat
quench a thirsty soul from
the love bird glass

A toast, my dear, to love, with the love bird glass:

May it alight on your heart,
and bring you spring
when all the flowers grow.

Slainte!

(Visiting from Poetry Pantry. ) Enjoyed both the picture and the poem. I think we all need these love bird glasses.

So much sentiment from a glass. Nicely done.

Sherry Blue Sky said...

I adore the poem, and love the glasses too! Awesome.

This is neat, using uncommon connection words, and love bird glasses.

You are talented and clever.

This was fun.

I like how you wrote "love bird" and not "lovebird". It makes the word endearing and fresh.
