A Drop of Wine

A DROP OF WINE A drop of wine shall fall... On to a doublet Staining forever What was snowy white Blood red A passing during the night A walk along the castle wall I was there I saw you fall Taken from me I heard you call A drop of wine shall fall Blood red Staining forever My heart instead It started as a game... Skipping across parapets Such delight! You needed it Always done at night A free spirit... In all but name You delighted us all, with your antics in the Great Hall I saw you fall From a parapet My heart ,leapt You cannot conquer The journey within A drop of wine Shall fall On to my heart Blood red You will always be mine Inwards , I bled The call of tiny birds Fluttering of wings Took you to the stars Where you saw, so many wonderful things The journey within... Can sometimes begin With a drop of wine Blood red Staining forever Hearts , instead
