/// Rémi’s mother and aunt claim, “We’re fine.”
but they’ve finished four bottles of wine.
He made bold to intrude
with some coffee he’d brewed.
They’d be rude (and unwise) to decline.
/// His kid sister with Mom and Aunt sat,
feeling proud she’s allowed in their chat.
From the house he would gawk
at their adult “girl-talk.”
When he came near they shooed Rémi, “Scat!’
/// In the garden they’d gossip and drink;
speak of longing for love, but “Men stink!”
The pre-teen sipped wine, too,
(as the French children do).
Soon, three minds and three cycles in synch.
/// From those hours with her elders she spent,
Rémi’s sis took a cynical bent.
She avoided the boys.
From the grape came her joys.
Later on, to a convent she’s sent.
