Still in awe over the success of of our little poetry contest. Final tally for the 24 hours was 134 poems and over 2700 page views. What a start to a great annual tradition. New and old friends alike posted little and bigger ditties. My man Glen Bardgett, the nicest Somm you'll ever meet, from Annie Gunn's in St. Louis, penned this one, that just happened to catch my eye this morning.
there once was a lach bundschu from gun
where daily the focus was fun
we walked up their hill
wine started to spill
i tripped and fell on my bun
the years are 151
like famed bacardi of rum
time is the proof
their wines are no spoof
to know them has always been fun
