The Wine Waitron

Hello. Good evening. I greet you with cheer To the fancy and posh, I'm a Sommelier To the friendly and warm, call me The Som And to the simple, less worldly, I'm a wine waitron My job here at Lanser's? To satisfy your senses Don't panic or worry, cos it doesn't mean expensive It's all about ensuring a meal utterly divine By combining your dish with a most wonderful wine Miss Lucy, she's named after the endangered Stumpnose Bursting with flavours of the pamplemousse rose A few sips of her, right before your first bite Miss Lucy will gift you one heck of a night They say it's the lost element when you're making wine It's precious and free, we call it the Work of Time Our Bordeaux Blend birthed in 2001 When it passes your lips, the fun's just begun When I visit your table, resist a sideways look We're here for a good time, let's play by the book And if you're prepared to throw me a bone You may just get poured another Life from Stone

And a hearty "à votre santé" to you, too, Barrie. I've never dined in a restaurant posh enough to have a sommelier, but I do enjoy a decent red, or white, or even rosé to help round out a good meal.
