A Simple Rose & A Smoky Stein
An Ode to Dine
A Simple rose set upon a table; she always sets the mood
Pleasantry while enjoying plenty of hearty home cooked food
Pair it with a smoky stein; I much prefer it over a glass
Dainty, thin and fragile stems; I find them rather crass
A Frosty mug with fancy etchings, chilled with Merlot wine
Paints a smile on my face; this is my ode to dine
A simple rose and company; either family or some friends
Centerpiece of love, you see, the message that she sends
Smoky steins are favored by those seeking beer time guzzle
But I prefer them for sipping wine; sipping slowly to a fuzzle
Each to their own, I often say; I like my choice just fine
Perhaps not seen as normal standard; this is my ode to dine
A simple rose brightens up a room and compliments a meal
Her ruby petals are such a delight no matter how you feel
A smoky stein is her mate; oh, my worthy bosom friends
No matter how bad my day may be, these two will sway amends
To project out on the holidays, as whether to gather or just confine
It’s okay because either way I will indulge in my ode to dine
Complacent with a simple rose and one good old smoky stein
