Milquetoast

MILQUETOAST

–noun (sometimes initial capital letter)
a very timid, unassertive, spineless person, especially one who is easily dominated or intimidated























The proffered wine
On tasting, proved to be
Nothing more than
A mere milquetoast
Easily overpowered
By all sorts of flavours
That had little to do
With its alleged qualities.

Not the kind of wine I like! ;-) Nicely written.

I don't drink wine,
hope that you have a day filled with fun!
