It's All the Same

The process of making fine wine
Starts with the ripe grape on the vine
The wine maker plays
For long endless days
Trying for a product sublime

Now wine can be bought in a jug
Or a box with a plastic plug
Just weeks to table
But it's still able
To quickly put ass on the rug

The "ass on the rug" would be me, dear LNC, especially after the date Saturday. Haven't heard from him since though. Is this the way life works? Was supposed to get the MRI results today and heard nothing. Anyway, best wishes in the wine contest! Love, Carolyn
