Yann Rolland Poet Free verse

Monbazillac

Let yourself be tempted,
You who have sorrow,
You who sings out of tune,
Let yourself be tempted
You who sleep so badly,
Among the ghosts,
Let yourself be tempted
By my Monbazillac,

Let yourself be tempted
By the sweet taste,
By the soft color,
Let yourself be tempted
By the subtle intoxication,
By the proud grape variety,
Let yourself be tempted
By the Monbazillac,

Let yourself be tempted,
If love disappointed you,
Let yourself be tempted
If a few kisses
Don’t console yourself,
If your friends lie to you
Let yourself be tempted
By this Monbazillac.


NB This is a wine with fruited taste

Sotto Poet July 26, 2025 at 11:00 AM Very well composed, Yann. You make it feel like a nice thing to try, I think it's a french wine though. Yann Rolland August 4, 2025 at 5:18 PM yes poet sotto, it is french, thanking so much Trump for the taxes enjoyed your nice words

Victor Buhagiar July 26, 2025 at 8:26 AM I love wine and have a drink at noon. However I prefer the strong red wine mostly. A Bordeaux would be fine. Yann Rolland August 4, 2025 at 5:20 PM yes Victor it is not a red wine, but changing time to time id fine for me, i like red wines too

Sara Kendrick July 26, 2025 at 7:40 AM Well, I have heard that some say wine can lift spirits, but I am not sure. Jesus made water turn into wine and it was the best wine at the time. I wonder if it intoxicated. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K Yann Rolland July 26, 2025 at 7:58 AM thanks sara, always with moderation, take care, but this wine is delicious indeed

Ilene Bauer July 25, 2025 at 3:55 PM i do not know this wine, yann, but if it's as intoxicating as your poem, it's worth a taste for sure! Yann Rolland July 26, 2025 at 8:01 AM o ilene, you have to discover this wine, could you find it in USA, i am not sure, thanks for reading , always with moderation

Valsa George July 25, 2025 at 9:01 AM Wine , though not intoxicating, has a slight kick, so that we derive a new energy. It enables us to lessen our pain over failed love. Well written , dear Yaan. Yann Rolland July 26, 2025 at 8:02 AM thanks valsa, once a week i can resist, like a teen, always with moderation of course, take care
