Grape Vines Leopard
GRAPE VINES LEOPARD
Dionysus
knew the way to his father’s heart
changing vines fruit into
wine
astounding Zeus with his bar chart
art
rewarding his genius making him a
god
while the Greek prune juice
king
he sent to vast pastures of ring
sting
In funky leopard skin loin cloth
partying it up in ancient
Greece
sailors tried to destroy his
peace
error of judgement caused their
demise
Dionysus
turned them to dolphins
tossing them to vast oceans
tides
Morals we learn from this mythical
tale…
never mess with Ancient Greek gods
sober or drunk their powers forever
prevail
