GRAPES AND OLIVES

When The sun hits
The grapes and the olives

It’s love in my eyes
When The grapes

Turn into wine and
Then we dine on olives

That’s  love in my heart
When the moon hits the ocean

That’s love in the world
As I look out over the ocean

Drinking wine and dine on olives
And listen to the singer sing

The old Neapolitan song
St Lucia that is love in my heart

That will never part when the girl
With a cart of flowers says

Sir would you like a flower
That’s love in my heart.

After reading Greg your engaging prose there's more than a tad of the romantic about you.
A poet and a ladies man and a poem that sings.
And also a poem with a much needed balm of calm.
A tender poem made to soothe.
 And those olives, wine and music set the stage.
Thanks Greg and sometimes tender is better.
