Petite Syrah, 2006, and Tierra Del Mar

“With celebration, comes friends.

With inspiration, comes creation.

With sophistication, comes elegance,

and with wine, comes life.”

      --Christine Andrew

On the beach, we walk

Midsummer calm, warmth of the sun,

the wind taking a much needed vacation.

The log calls us to sit, and open the wine

given by our son, in celebration of Father’s Day,

the real gift being the son in the life of his parents.

The sun dances in clearing skies, 

sparkling on the calm of the sea,

and the wide open silence of the beach.

We take the time to enjoy the moment,

the wine, the still of the air,

the slow murmur of the waves

far away, almost

low tide.
