Creative Sijo you have penned in this one. Some say that wine has some good qualities to help with one's health as long as it doesn't become an addiction. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

You set quite a mood in your sijo, Tom. The bottle is always best when shared with friends, so pass a glass to me. Hugs, Carolyn
