Ode to the Grape

Posted on the 13 February 2012 by Dpitter @dpitterblog
From the earth it grows
Nature’s perfect fruit Bite-size little morsels Some might even say they’re cute But with a little stomping And some time to age In the barrel it ferments Waiting to take the stage
When the time is right Into the bottle it goes One twist of the little handle A river of awesomeness flows The liquid treasure now contained On goes the cork or screw top Leaving the vineyard farmer To think about next years crop 
Shipped out to the general public Aged 19 years and older Liquid courage doth await Those wanting to become much bolder Red or white or sparkling blend They’re all just fine by me For after a few downed glasses They all taste swee-to-the-t!
Don’t wait for a special occasion Who needs a grand celebration? Open up that bottle fast And indulge in a little libation So whether with some friends or kin Or all alone with your honey You’ll soon find out it tastes real great And makes you feel kinda funny
One glass becomes two And then three, and then four Put those keys away ‘Cause you ain’t drivin’ no more Have a good time But don’t be a poser If you stumble we will laugh Beep beep! It's the faildozer!
Waking up the next morning Your head a wee bit groggy Be grateful that you didn’t throw up And your bed sheets are not soggy I say bite the dog that bit you And you’ll be feeling fine So grab yourself a glass And pour some wine baby!  Wine!
**Please drink responsibly**
