Wine Glass (Octelle) Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

Form, you are the wine glass of words
Holding verses with defined cords
Fluid thoughts flow like good wine
Soothe senses other than mine
With a swirl you make it blend
Sips of contents there to send
Form, you are the wine glass of words
Holding verses with defined cords.
