A Glass of Wine
~
I will free my feelings
with a glass of wine
.
Unwrap and disentangle
the knot of twine
.
For years they’ve been
under tight control
.
Now I’ll release them
to heal my soul
.
To make it whole
to rock ‘n roll

When I think of rock ‘n’ roll and wine….Boone’s farm Strawberry Hill or maybe Apple come to mind. But Ripple was the cheapest and the most often consumed back in the day…Oh, the hangovers!!Thanks for the ‘Trip’ down memory lane, Denise.
Glad you enjoyed it, Jack. I did too!
You may as well go the whole bottle
Cool poem – love the image of the twine, and the ending is great.
Hmmm, you may be right, Gabe.
I love the word ‘twine’ – to me it sounds just like it is, haha. Wind the twine around… Thanks, so much.
All that tension … gone with the wine.
Ah, yes, Maxi.
Wine does not do anything for me..but give me a good sherry and then I am anybodies (with reason)
Sherry will do the trick, Patrecia. Specially on a cold winter’s evening…
“Unwrap and disentangle
the knot of twine”
“I see ten thousand knots, but only one piece of string.”
I’m knot very good at undoing nots, lol!
Maybe you need to cut back on the wine?
It’s the fuel for me to fly, Ben.
“A glass of wine …
It’s the fuel for me to fly”
but then
“I’m knot very good at undoing nots,”
A bit of a conundrum then,
T’wine, or knot t’wine, that is the question?
Stuck betwine the Devil and the deep blue sea.
Denise, I think I’m going to print this one and put it next to my current box of South African wine.
It will make me smile even bigger when I have some.
That’s a sweet idea, Andra. Glad you have SA wine there.
Rock on, Denise!
Right on, Nancy!
rock n roll is always a fall back of mine, wine i once did but not really anymore but did like reisling…coffee just as well lets me let my hair down…
Coffee is good too, Brian, and I will always love music, from loud beats (ala Queen and The Boss) to soft and gentle melodies…
Love your “T’wine, or knot t’wine, that is the question?” comment, Adee, haha Nothing wrong with unwinding with a glass of wine (accompanied by some loudly played rock ‘n roll) – I hope you’re rocking and rolling soon – do you swim as part of your physical therapy?
Thanks, Bb! No one has mentioned swimming to me yet, but I have been thinking that maybe in the new year when I go back to the doc for a checkup I will ask. I know we are going extremely slowly with progress as the bone was not strong yet.
Simple yet true
Thanks, Becca, for your visit and comment. Hope to see you again.
