Merlot is the dusk
Chardonnay is afternoon
Both are vintage years

A soused mackerel
Mint lamb shanks with barley
A nice slowed cooked rice
Provolone cheese

Three cheese lasagne
Saffron and mussel tartlets
An iced-lime cheesecake
or
Goats' cheese souffle

sipping chardonnay
our dreams in waves
drift into the sunset

Welcome to Maison Ruinart
be sure and visit our cellar
It is like a dark gothic cathedral
We are one of the best vineyards in France
Chardonnay or Pinot Noir?...

Many congrats to Royal Trevino
And to Ezzelle, her new born bambino
She'll be so bonnie in pink
One day she'll make the boys wink
I toast with a Chardonnay vino...

Regretting a dream
…Folies Bergere
Exhaling the magic
Marseille in despair 
Seeking forgiveness
Vive Champs elysees
Mimes feigning answers
Montmartre chardonnay

Deep purple days
the sun will rise
and squeeze like grapes
my bloodshot eyes
that cry red wine
to line my face.
A brighter day
draws Chardonnay.

These words I write may not be worth much to you
perhaps a glass of prosecco or cheap chardonnay
bottom shelf bourbon and soda, tonic and Tanqueray
You have no concept of what they cost me
the price that I must pay...

The sunrise blushes
in sunflower
 chardonnay braids
on soft merlot clouds
as if it has heard
my whispers of love
sent to you upon
cool chrysanthemum 
breezes this perfect 
autumn morning...

my lips touch you, parting eagerly
to caress you, savour your taste
my mouth responds to your
seductive skilfulness
your ability to
transport me 
totally
to
a 
state
of
 bliss
 I love you
Chardonnay...

Chardonnay whispers


Sipping a glass neath 
an autumn moon smiling
Tasting her lips as 
the stars glow above

Chardonnay whispers
‘pon September heavens
Caressing my heart
as she exhales her love

Good night Soupers...

His stock is rosy red, his nose
Blood-hound sensitive;
Cabernets, Chardonnay, 
Muscadet; Bacchus of the industry! 

Rolling the names around his tongue,
leaving no Chateau or wine unsung:
 Chateau Lafite, Chateau Latour, 
Chateau Mouton, Chateau Margaux....

an unassuming stack of mellow brie
dark succulent grapes with a shine
two crystal goblets without water spots
large bottle of Chardonnay wine

he wants to take her off to a villa
Where he hopes to “make her mine”
his mother packs chicken and homemade bread.
She throws in two red roses. Say hello to Clementine....

Listen to poem:

and love is food
come bring your appetite
my lips ready for a feast
a nibble here and there

pinot noir or chardonnay
moist upon my tongue
please don't tease
or wake the tiger

it's a basic jungle rule
yes, food is love
and love is food
under moonlit skies

Soft chords of strummed chardonnay pore my soul -
Harmonized beauty held once in this string,
Measured perfection, melodious, whole,
Now floats along an endless shore.  Emptied, I sing;

Chardonnay misery pours from my soul,
Strums no accord for these miscomposed notes:
Harmonized melodies measure me whole.
Far from me measures where harmony’s Melody floats.

We traveled all day long
Like two wandering gypsies
Couldn’t wait to get to our retreat
When we’d put up our feet
The allure of that secluded bar
With its bluesy sweet melodies
Awaiting table candlelit for two
We’ll cap off the evening 
Swaying on through the night
With a glass of chardonnay
And linger till it’s time to sleep

Candles, chocolates and a bottle of chardonnay 
Heralding the eve of Christmas day
Rollicking good fun is in the air
Icy outside but who gives a care
Surprises all gaily wrapped
To a song that someone's just rapped
Mistletoe hangs in the hall
And the clock ticks slowly on the wall
Santa Clause is coming to call

Dancing lights on the tree
A time of merriment for you and me
Young ones singing merrily.

I wonder, do you wonder too?
Can you spare a moment, or perhaps a few?
For you see, I am a lonely man;
Have you likewise ever lonely been?
I will light a candle, or even three
For the promise of your company.
We could share a glass of Chardonnay,
Or a Brandy, if you will only stay.
As for the night, it might never end,
Should you the every hour spend.
Can you spare a moment, or maybe four?
Till flies the moon, and evermore!...

Blazing marigolds of a blazing May
Giving a wide canopy over a shaded pathway
Against a neighbouring tree of fading laburnums
He celebrated with a bottle of Chardonnay
Falling into a dreamy langour
As the laburnums sprinkled in gentle foreplay
Too hot for fowl-play
Many a distress calls of Mayday
Running hither-thither
His hamster decamped
To the cool of my glass ashtray
A sense of belonging everywhere at play
This is one happy birthday!...

There was a hen from Delaware
Who purchased blue feathers to wear
She harboured a mania
To see Pennsylvania…
One state to another compare.

She heard there were Phillies at play
And diners where food was buffet
She found no utopia
Fell victim to phobia 
Whenever she drank Chardonnay.
