I was ready to lie on my slab of white marble
when suddenly there stood such a very great marvel!
A wizard he was all dressed up in bright stars
and driving a traffic jam of little pink cars!
He looked at me slyly and said "Hey! Get up!
Don't give it all over til on these you have supped!"
And out of a cloudburst of rain all in splatters
appeared a display of all glittery platters!
Red wine bottles sparkled and flowed like big rivers
and almonds ~ some shelled and some cut up in slivers!
Oh, how they tempted my tongue and my tummy!
For red wine's my favorite; when chilled its so yummy!
And almonds galore, more than ever I've seen
in piles and in bowls and in big soup tureens!
So I stood and I feasted; then I ate even more
and I drank my red wine as I sat on the floor
And the Wizard he told me "Girl, don't ever give up!
An answer there is for what questions come up!"
Red wine and almonds danced all round my bed!
Almonds and red wine went straight to my head!
And see? He was right, for much better I feel!
Now it's almonds and red wine at all of my meals!
