...the day is fleeting, and dusk does soon approach, so step your bare feet lightly along our burgeoning garden path, through trees of sanguine Tarocco orange, flesh the hue of your luscious lips, and vibrant Femminello lemons, joyous as your rollicking ringlet hair.
To Mother Earth, her dark loam crumbling between my fingers, releasing pungent aromas of humus, decomposing durmast oak leaf mulch, blackberry venison marinade, fermenting Damascene plum, Béarnaise of estragon and celery seed spiced with a delicate dusting of dried pequin chiles. Ah, but we are bound to her, aren’t we?

Forbidden quince, lilac hued meadow sage and creeping woodbine
Envelop this verboten love, lost in the cadence of time.
Zesty bergamot redolently embraces the venerable willow tree
Chrysos, the incandescent hue of eternal love, woven in life’s filigree.
It is energy encapsulated, building exponentially to a climactic breaking point. The floodgates open as music and passionate dance pour forth, uplifting as steaming Moroccan mint tea with a fine dollop of raw honey, tossed about judiciously with fresh strawberries soaked in Campari, elderflowers to garnish. Lavender, pomegranate and sandalwood are all but forgotten in the full, sensual, deluge upon the senses.
This black charred cedar dark and lavender sea salt cacao mysterious beauty, the color of antique amethyst rings set in silver upon the gnarled fingers of the collector of beasties & faeries and he who cavorts to the wild whisper of the flora vinifera of the Adelaide: El Paso de Robles dry-farmed roots, stretching deep, deep down, in search of precious life-giving water, held tight in rock, yet made available through laborious extraction, pulled to the surface like Persephone slowly wending her way back to the world of the living.
Smooth on the nose, bright on the tongue, the 2022 blend is redolent of sweet-sour Amarena cherries, smoked leather, compote of sun-ripe berries and the distinctive nuttiness of dried Calimyrna figs, a fine touch of black strap tobacco, grilled Chamorro peppers, and the peel and pith of a mature blood orange ground into a chalice bursting with sun-ripened mulberry.
It had been raining, the earth damp and heavy. Greek oregano and lavender flowers swaying in the breeze of the morning sunlight. Cooking by the fireside, this was going to be a special meal – beans in an ash covered pignata with wild greens. As the red peppers stewed and the Campari tomatoes blistered, the scent of the wild boar hunted the night before comes wafting in from the butchers shed.
Wrapped in a vortex of fallen leaves, Zephyr materializes from out of the mist. His majestic wings flutter, leaving behind a scent of charred forest and wildflower honey. Before him cowers the River Nymph, Willow, her eyes wide in astonishment. Cast out and fearing her magic all but lost, she desperately yet trepidatiously accepts his offerings, his promises of power and immortality.
