Zin

Withering auras of Zin surround The tears of a crying heart Trickling down through ancient vines Spilled into pools of sacred red wine Where pain freely flows Until the brooding heart glows Embraced in time, sharp edges refined Drifting to sheer delight Zin pours from sepulchers divine Sanctioned in muted candle’s light Promises the spirit to ignite Reflected in his sparkling eyes

Zin could well be the wine of the Poets as saluted in my poem. Zen could be the poet. Nice work, sweetheart. Thanks for your visits and appreciated comments.... Jake
