Gnarled vines creep along the mist
hold a touch of romance kissed
patience needed to bring fruit
vigilance-the work takes root.

Pruning each with special love
pray for raindrops from above
later when the time is right
pick the grapes at flavours height.

Oaken cask will hold the proof
aged competes well with youth
slip the softness o'er your lips
end result of vines in mist.

I like this too, the obvious flow and the undercurrent.

Which just goes to show that aged things can hold their own with youthful things any 'old' day!!!!! Loved this write....and the message is so true!!

This is, shall we say, RIPE with freshness and imagery... A very nice "departure". I love the title, too.
