"CHEERS!"

"CHEERS!"

For Paulette, My OMF Friend and Partner....







For several, interminable,
Extremely long years,
I couldn’t drink ...
Either grape, or grain.

And this, at a time
Of great distress,
When a glass, or two,
Would have helped ease pain.

But, recently, I discovered,
With joy,
That I can now drink,
In reasonable measures.

Chilled white wine,
Or warming port,
Two of life’s
Very simple pleasures.

So, when buffeted now by
Life’s cruel sea,
And feeling frantic,
Frazzled and fraught....

I just jump into
My lifeboat, for.......
“In any storm, a port…. a port…..”!!
