A - Z Challenge: The Letter D

Decanter

Tonight I opened an old Bordeaux.
The dark purple wine flowed
  into the crystal decanter,
   where it will breathe and open,
     releasing it's complexity,
        and smoothing it's rough edges.
My heart reaches for you because
  your love is my decanter.

~your love is my decanter.~ I will come back to this gentle thought - That a person could be a decanter smoothing off the rough edges is just so calming. ... hmm I think to myself -- I hope that is what she meant!
