My Wine — MidWeek Blues —

Note from the author: Please remember that when I write poems or stories in the first tense it isn't necessarily me talking or even about me. It is ALWAYS the 'POET' whoever that may be writing about himself or herself.



My Wine

Merlot is my comfort
I shall not want
Though I am old and blue
There when I need


My glass is near empty
I shall not want
For sure there is some more
Where that came from


My thoughts once bad dissolve
Night's fright is calm
A friend may come to call
They never write


And if our bottle's dry
We shall not want
For sure there are some more
Where this came from

.If you want to post a MidWeek Blues picture, go get directions from Rebecca by clicking on the logo picture on the right. She has a Mr. Linky and good directions . Just do what I did.

Or do less. All she requires is a BLUE PICTURE or BLUE THOUGHT, you don't have to write.

  3. Merlot isn't among my favorite wines, but Amoeba enjoys it. I prefer Cabernet Sauvignon. Your verse is lovely though. I am sure the wine was flattered.

  7. There's a cheery sight first thing in the morning. Not tempted now - too early (just after 7:00 am) - maybe later:-)
