Australian Red Wine
Do you sleep well at night or think about poetry?
Inspired by a phrase from Mr Green
A short verse of imminent insignificance. (ie this one, not Mr Green’s)
Noctural no-no
By Jellz
Last night I had a fitful sleep, words lurking in my head
Dreams floated around it as I lay confused within that bed
I tried to figure what they mean , but tossed and turned instead
Remind me not to drink so much of cheap Australian red!
Disclaimer
* no wine was actually consumed or injured in the making of this poem
oops typo – “round” not “around”
oops typo – “round” not “around”
No thumbs down from me appear on here…sorry that rhymes a little…..my bad peeps! Word!
Thanks Dondi. Good call. I think it’s you and me against the world sometimes (Helen Reddy wasn’t it?)
A nice Australian Serez might quiet things for you
If you could be convinced to try
Just one glass, not the whole bottle!
No hangover then would come as you lie….
