Sangria

To celebrate a special day, I went out with my spouse, Having dinner in a place we like A few blocks from our house. My drink of choice is beer But they do not serve IPA’s* So Sangria’s what I get, Reminding me of college days. For on weekends when we partied, There would always be a bowl Filled with cut-up fruit and Yago;** Getting tipsy was the goal. Though I drink now just with dinner And it’s usually a brew, At this restaurant, Sangria’s What I sip and one will do. Yet I think back rather fondly Of my early drinking years, When Sangria and tequila Were what I drank with my peers. *India Pale Ale **a brand of Sangria
