MY FAVOURITE TIPPLE

 

Wine

every time

sweet or dry

white red or rose

any time night or day

white red or rose

sweet or dry

every time

wine.

    Mine is a Rioja - Cheers!

    Good watercolour as well.

    • Michael Edwards

      Yes Rioja is fine - in fact most reds are my preference - have a dislike of beer - does this make me odd?

      • Goldfinch60

        Peculiar but not odd. I like proper beer good bitters, pale ales and miles. But I do prefer wine and scotch - not at the same time!

        Cheers Michael. 🙂

        Very neat and well crafted. A good pint of real ale served without too much head and about room temperature. Can't beat it.

        • Michael Edwards

          I'll stick to wine - beer bloats me out too much

          Wine which maketh GLAD ~ The heart of Man ~ Beer I fear makes Man morose ~ and MAD ! Thanks for sharing your bottle ~ love reverse poems ~ please check mine today ~ Thanks BRIAN. Interesting that you posted a GRAVEYARD with a wine poem. If you search the gravestones you will find an epitaph which reads: SIR WILLIAM OVERTIPPLE Here lies a Knight ~ Fell out of bed while drinking RED ~ Should have stuck to WHITE ! BRIAN

            Thanks Brian for what you wrote
            but beer makes my belly bloat
            now wine makes me float
            like an elegant boat.

                Good poem Michael
                But alas I am not
                A grape drinker
                Run and beer...
                But not in the same
                Glass !!!!!

                • Michael Edwards

                  Not in the same glass? Some do. Thanks PH

                  • P.H.Rose

                    Ha ha... it was supposed
                    To say Rum... my favourite
                    Tipple....

                  • Tony36

                    Great write

                  • rrodriguez

                    Wine nor beer for me, but for the poem, serve me another one! Great write...!

                  • MendedFences27

                    Not a wine drinker, but I like your poem.Is this another form I don't know about, or one you created. It's very clever and probably hard to write. I did enjoy it though. - Phil A.

                    • Michael Edwards

                      Not aware that it follows any form so I guess I invented it - fun to write but, as you say, not as easy as it looks. Thanks so much for commenting Phil.
