Bacchanale

Bacchanale

Bacchus in the day
Fit for a Caravaggio
Crowned with leaves
Merry zinfandel
Farmer in the dell
Ring in Riesling
Pour with Port
My cup runneth over
Hoisting a glass
First of my class
Wooing a lass
Fair Ariadne
Or elderly Silenus
Getting on in age
Mentor to Dionysus
Like Falstaff to Hal
That ruddy face
All aglow
Falling off his ass
Besotted gods
Birth of mirth
Marvelous merriment
Keep up the pace
Space is the place
And so it goes
Trippety do la
Days of wine and roses
Having a vine time
Tangled up in blue
Beve con me
Let hearts sing
Full to the brim
Merry garlands
Romping with
Nymphs and Maenads
Trysts in the forest
Verily veritas
Sunday morning
Coming down
A toast to all
Valiant host
Turned to toast
Here’s to a roast
Lest we boast
I’ll drink to that
A modest trope
Dope without hope
