/// A small Sip of Wine poured for the child,
who looked up at the peddler and smiled.
There’s no cause for alarm.
Drunk adults may cause harm;
kids won’t seek toddler girls to “go wild.”
/// Unlike strong spirits which are distilled,
wine’s fermented by pros who are skilled.
Raw milk which he might drink
can go bad in a blink.
Tainted water can get people killed.
/// At an early age, he’ll learn to test
for which vintage with which foods pair best.
Cornmeal mash which he eats
and some sweet cookie treats—
Does a red or a white wine go best?
