Here's to a home, from it I ran, And to the wicked life of mine, To solitude and loneliness, Here's to you, ah, may you be fine. I raise my glass to lips n'er kissed, And the eyes that warmed my love so, To our tête-à-tête; course we did, I loved it when I made them glow. ©August 7, 2018 / Jerry Pat Bolton

I'll toast to that! I see you moved on from cheap red wine to the more expensive stuff.

I'll lift a glass down here in Rancho San Diego and toast with you. "Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring." Oscar Wilde. Peace... r

If you lived the wicked life you claim, then you must have raised a wine glass or two in the past. I raise my glass to the wicked life I wish I had lived.

You speak of "a wicked life" but I am sure it wasn't that wicked. I'll toast to that.
