Bottle of Chianti, Cheese and Charcuterie Board

Let’s have a baby, let’s watch a movie

The jets in the bathtub make it feel like a jacuzzi

At the farmer’s market, I ran into Jason

He introduced himself like we were friends but I couldn’t place him

 

At the bistro with the brick and the reclaimed floor

We’ll have a bottle of chianti, cheese and charcuterie board

 

I bought a houseboat after the divorce

Let my gym card lapse, stopped going to the golf course

I made a new friend at the marina there

She was into history and Renaissance fairs

 

She showed me her collection of authentic medieval swords

We had a bottle of chianti, cheese and charcuterie board

 

At the Buddhist book club in the sky

I met a long-haired former tennis pro and part-time Rabbi

“Back when I had eyes and skin,” he said,

“I did so many different things -

There wasn’t an anything once that I didn’t try”

 

The doctor whispered in my ear as she cut the umbilical cord

Start with a bottle of chianti, cheese and charcuterie board
