Sangria
I loved it when in college,
Which is when I did imbibe it,
Though syrupy and fruity
Is how many would describe it.
At parties, in a punch bowl,
It was poured and filled with fruit -
Mostly oranges and apples,
Sometimes tangerines to boot.
Though nowadays it's rarely served
(Since things in vogue may pass),
There is a local restaurant
Where I enjoy a glass.
It brings me back to years ago
When life was how it was;
The memories and alcohol
Provide a pleasant buzz.
