our Puck in Porto Rafti
All that love can give
to distinguish itself
from friendship is
permission.
Every way and byway
of the mind is elated
by the towel snap of friendship,
as the mug of pure permission
pours its balsam to the heart.
Time After Time

ReplyDeleteEverything in your delectation depends on the towel's being gray. If you'd been served an orange towel with this riesling, the whole thing could have come undone.
