Wine
Wine's exhilaratingly delightfulWhen sipped at any meal
Yet intoxicatingly frightful
When drunk with too much zeal
Wine will warm you with it's glow
You may act most injudiciously
If sipping on a french Bourdeaux
It's sipped too avariciously
You can end up seeing doubly
Swigging the King of wines
That delicious champagne bubbly
From vintage champagne vines
Success of an Italian meal hinges
At many an Italian home
On their Italian Chianti binges
In their Italian city of Rome
Nothing's better to wash down pasta
For Chianti red wine there is no match
The pasta slides down so much fasta
Tippling Chainti with tippling dispatch
Japanese drink Saki readily
It's the rice wine of their nation
Known to affect them most headily
Is their Saki dedication
If winers can't wine when they're dining
For them, there is nothing much worse
Avid winers resort then to whining
'Cause they can't squelch their wine craving thirst
All those many wine sipping hearties
Who guzzle from morning till dawn
Do not end their wine guzzling parties
Until all the wine is long gone
