Wine, Woman & Verse

Joseph Pollock

Why: Wine, Woman & Verse?! ..

Simply because they are complementary or inextricably linked !!!

How is that?
Wine .. as a first encouraging spark, comes firstly for its high prestige among drinks, that's why at fancy restaurants drinks are served by presenting the Wine List, not like a whisky list, beer list, etc.
This is to preserve its high standing among the world of alcoholic drinks.
Similarly you can, very well, find a wine bar but not a single bar named by other kinds of drinks. Red wine got a certain specialty and is mostly demanded by a female as being very healthy and tasty yet mild drink that looks elegant in its glass .. in her soft hand, with her stylish sideways glance and with my hand shot out to grab her while I watch, fascinated, as her glass began to tenderly touch her cherry lips.
Woman .. whom you so proudly share with that terrific glass of wine and then could be your whole life full of fun and romance.
A man and a woman are complementary to each other.
When a woman walks into your life she might turn it to a completely different one, she can make you look up or look down to the ground.
In either way you gain great benefits, she does too!
Verse .. is one of them!
She can inspire your mind and soul to write your own praising, admirable & romantic verses or to versify even more about your own down experience but in an optimistic decent way.
That's what it always has to be!
Never give up .. never lay down your arms!!
So here we go in our battle of wits and here comes the final fruitful result or the moving outcome written in verse.

Let's all drink to the health of our Wine, Woman & Verse ..
