Napa Valley

The past did reign , tears

left stain, and the wine flows in

aged apology…

Castello de Amorosa

A guest among the

well attended history

majestic aged old trees

Diverse rich molten soils

erupt into twisted hope

with grape-bulging vines…

Napa Valley

Behind aged stone walls,

Italian wine flows as veins

breathed from purple grapes…

Napa Valley

Brown ground bakes under

sun’s relentless draught, holds

hostage enduring grapes…

Under crystal sky

midnight blue grapes hang upside

down, dripping harvest…
