Wine Tasting Comitia

Your homemade wine tastes pleasantly neat,
An aromatic, crisp, nutty treat,
But we agree among us,
It tastes a bit like fungus,
Tell us. Why do you have purple feet?

Why? Does my wine leave fuzz on your tongue?
Make it part of it's praises you've sung.
Oh please Comitia, hush!.
stop yelling for your tooth brush,
A little fungus will keep you young.



Inspired and written 6/21/11 by Francine Roberts'
 "Bottle of Wine (fruit of the vine)" contest.
