The Napa Valley

The Napa Valley

Vines march abreast through valleys in wait  
The fall harvest, hope for the year                  
Beautiful vistas gladden                                  
Swollen orbs dropping down                         
Fall color painting                                           
Nip in the air                                                   
The first crush
Waiting

Beautifully written Nonet Barbara, that could so easily be describing the vineyards that surround me here in Italy. Excellent. Love, Nigel

A glass of wine picked from the Napa vines. That sounds as good as this write.

One of our favorite places in Northern California. Our son has just moved nearby, so we will have more chances to explore. I also wrote a poem called "Wine Country" awhile back, a rhyme style, but I truly love your Nonet!! Smile!:) Carrie
