Palmwine

I.
Palmwine is white,
Palmwine is filled with might,
Its colour signifies purity,
Its bubbles mystifies dignity,
A gourd of palmwine,
A board of calm dice,
Absurd or enigma what are the right words top use.

II.
Palmwine is sweet,
Natural wine filled with yeast,
Its taste signifies non salinity,
Its smell an inviting malignity,
but,
A head full of wine,
A bed full of mines,
Afloat even under the scorching heat of the desert sun,
A head full of wine,
I cannot discern his next tendency,
still,
Palmwine is nature's milk that follows your discipline.
