Home Brew

There once was a friend of mine,
Who was famed for making wine.
Her visits were great,
As she brought a crate -
But I lost a week each time.


For Francine's Bottle of Wine contest, written 17th June

Robin Davis Date: 5/6/2014 9:11:00 PM Jack This is humorous and made me chuckle. I would probably lose a year with just one sip, since I've never drank in my life. LOL Thank you for the nice comment on my Shakespeare poem. Login to Reply
