Great picture! Sounds like a good memory? I remember concord grapes and my grandmother's house, and then later in one of my own houses.

Congrats on on the win. Grapes are good. Not much of a sangria fan-like Pinot Noir. Love to eat them

This haiku is very effective because it uses strong sensory details and vivid imagery to paint a complete picture in just seventeen syllables. It evokes a feeling of rustic charm, simple pleasure, and the beauty of nature's bounty culminating in a moment of celebration. The progression from the messy act of picking to the elegant, celebratory "sangria sunrise" creates a satisfying journey within the poem. Congrats, Ma'am Rea for topping the contest.
