MY SPIRIT

Michael Edwards

 

 

MY SPIRIT 

 

For every lock there is a key
 as daub combines with wattle.


My spirit’s always here with me
unless I’ve finished the bottle.

    I am sure if that bottle is finished there must be another gin which you can open.

    • Michael Edwards

      Yes you are right - we have 6 bottles of the elixir - and my favourite by far is the sloe which I drink quickly.

      A fine write and pic M. Oh lol. Some don't finish the bottle, cos I add water to it. How's the itching??

      • Michael Edwards

        Okay this morning - just hope the temperature stays above freezing.
        Try doing it backwards - add the spirit to the water.

          I don't usually get the itch unless it's severe - some degrees below freezing. But little patches of itching can start up. We got fleas? (Speak for yourself Orchi!).

          Michael,

          No apologies necessary! Your writes are worth repeating! Your ā€œspiritā€ write just reminded me to order a bottle of it for my hubby. No coal in his stocking this year!

          Love the painting!

            What spirit will you get?
            Mines a ton and ginic.

              Always plenty of spirit to be found in the next bottle sir.

              • Michael Edwards

                If you can find it when you're p****d. šŸ¤¢
