Yep - this is kind a before and after all that drinking you did last night. You drank some wine and felt fine - thing is...you drank too much wine and now you wake up red-eyed with a bad headache, and your head feels like lead. Face it, you might be a wino. Well, hell-if-I-know... just guessin' ... ;)

Enjoyed your essence poem as all the silly bells are in order and I detect an end rhyme and internal rhyme. Picture of lucious, juicy grapes makes me thirsty.

Excellent contest entry. Wishing you lots of luck ...;)

    Haha, I wouldn't be writing poetry this morning if I'd really done that! But who hasn't experienced it at least once? Thanks for the stars.

Poet,
Your Essence poem is excellently written with vivid imagery painting a picture in the readers head. The art work is lovely you used. Your essence is in fine form with spot on syllable count of 6-6 and very good internal rhyme & end rhyme. You also used great alliteration with the F words. I liked your lines:
"Drank some wine and felt fine,
Eyes red, head lead, pain mine."
Your well written poem is a contender for a possible win the in the Essence writing prompt. I wish you good luck in the contest with your well penned essence style poem in the writing prompt. I'd recommend your essence poem to other readers. Keep on writing with a creative pen. I wish you a marvelous day...Missy.

    It's an experience I think most people can identify with. I wouldn't want it too often, though. Thanks for the five stars.

Your poem definitely captures the situation: that good, bubbly feeling does a 180 and leaves you saying, "Why did I do that?!" Those consequences . . . .

All rhyming wonderfully well.

this is a fabulous piece of poetic art! you've hit the structure spot on.
who doesn't relate to this:

"Drank some wine and felt fine,
Eyes red, head lead, pain mine."

that is why i stopped drinking 3 years ago.

A very well written essence competition entry, sticking strictly to the guidelines. It conveys a feeling many of us can empathise with at one time or another. Good luck :)
