Fine wine, unlike fine poetry. <br />Must be given time to mature, <br /> selected for its quality. <br />You must be absolutely sure. <br />To store it very carefully <br />undisturbed perhaps for years. <br />I much prefer fine poetry <br /> which rings like music in my ears. <br /> Dependent on your taste of course. <br />My ears drink in well spoken verse. <br />My taste in wine is rather coarse <br /> but it is easy on my purse. <br />I read fine poetry for free <br />from books stored in my library. <br /> <br />5-Sep-07<br /><br />ivor or ivor.e hogg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/wine-can-only-be-drunk-once/
