The back label of each vintage's Ian's Reserve Chardonnay includes a short poem from the collected works Ian left.
The Buddha Earth
(for Terry)
Yellow puffs of pollen, satin
black legs of the bee,
That's your destiny
I have seen oval
bright silky delight
wild impatiens, splash.
Incomplete wetland asphalt,
cyclone fencing reeds
phosphating the frogs.
Drawing a line for mankind
in the dust of our
future for nature.
The Buddha again
kicks the wheel, his
old rundown Buick.
