Instructions


    Breathe it in, the fragrance full,
    Smell the scent of beautiful.

    Swirl it in your challis glass,
    As people around you and time shall pass.

    See the streams melting into chasm
    Watch your troubles turn to ashen.

    Lure it steadily to your lip,
    Rest a moment, take a sip.

    Let it lie on grateful tongue,
    Complacent, pondering, passive reaction.

    Taste the depths of the great work of art;
    Feel every emotion of your memory’s heart.

    Chew it up, every drop of bittersweet life,
    For all divine wine and intellectual strife.

    Swallow slowly, else miss the joy,
    Of delectable decadence that can be so coy.

    Fill your soul with riches it brings,
    Life, grape, love and all happenings.

By Leah Beth Canon
