Fruit Of The Black Vineyard ( Part 5 )



In the heart of a dark and eerie land,
Lies a vineyard unlike any other,
Where the grapes are not the color of sand,
But a deep, rich shade of black, like no other.
The air is thick with a sense of mystery,
As the vines twist and turn in a tangled mess,
But there's a beauty in this chaotic history,
A story that only the vineyard can confess.
As the moon rises high in the sky,
The black grapes glisten under its light,
A sight so captivating, it makes one sigh,
For this is truly a magical sight.
The fruit of the black vineyard,
Is not for the faint of heart,
It holds secrets that must be guarded,
For fear of tearing the world apart.
Legend has it, that long ago,
A witch cursed this land,
And ever since, the grapes grow,
With a magic that is grand.
For those who dare to taste,
The fruit of the black vine,
Their senses will be embraced,
By a flavor so divine.
The first bite, a burst of sweetness,
But then comes a hint of something more,
A touch of darkness, a hint of deceitfulness,
Leaves one wanting to explore.
With each juicy grape that's plucked,
Comes a new sensation,
A symphony of flavors, so thoughtfully tucked,
In this seemingly forbidden creation.
Some claim to taste a hint of blood,
A reminder of the curse,
But others taste the essence of love,
In every single verse.
The fruit of the black vineyard,
Is a paradox in itself,
It holds both light and darkness,
In every bite, in every shelf.
As the vines continue to grow,
Their branches reaching towards the sky,
They seem to whisper secrets, oh so slow,
As if they hold the answers to life's why.
The black grapes, a symbol of strength,
For they thrive in a land of despair,
Despite the curse, they go to great lengths,
To produce a fruit that is rare.
But beware, for the fruit of the black vineyard,
Is not meant for everyone,
Only those with a heart that's bold,
Can truly appreciate its flavor, undone.
For within each grape lies a story,
Of love, magic, and even pain,
And only those willing to delve deeply,
Can truly taste its mystical gain.
So if you ever find yourself,
In the midst of a dark and eerie land,
Seek out the vineyard that's unlike any other,
And taste the fruit that's truly grand.
For the fruit of the black vineyard,
Is a treasure that's meant to be shared,
A flavor so unique and mesmerizing,
That leaves one completely ensnared.
