Fall Color

Rust spills across the rolling hills of Napa
Exhausted vines give one last blaze of glory
Before Winter’s sleep

Ah yes, the lost grape. There was a time I dare not go through that valley lest I consume in every winery along the way. This brings back memories. My son plays the Mendocino festival every summer, so I know the route. Liked this one mucho. Love, daver

This is lovely Barbara. My son and family recently moved to the wine country, and we love visiting there. It is glorious this time of year. Do you live in the area? Lovely poem! ~ Love, Carrie
