Alcohol.

Goldfinch60



That glass of wine with dinner

Can enhance the meal,

Allowing the glory of its taste

Relax the body

Into the enjoyment of life.

 

That glass of scotch after the meal

Brings the mind to contentment

As love and laughter

Surround the table

With friends enjoying their lives.

 

That extra drink may be too much,

As they say that alcohol

May be man’s worst enemy,

But the bible says,

Love your enemy.

    And I love my enemy - as they say:
    A meal without wine is like a day without sunshine.

    • Goldfinch60

      So true Michael, so true.

      Erm, yes lol. Aww, why no-one invite me to parties which have alcohol? We know why. I'm the phantom tipple-waterer! I'm a real pain and horror at this season. I might be disguised as Santa.

    • Poetic Dan

      That ended shorter than expected but then did it if alcohol was involved. Great work!

        Thank you Dan, most kind.

        PAUL to TIMOTHY ~ Please dont drink the water ~ its contaminated and you know you have a dicky tummy ! Ive sent you a couple of Bottles of Wine ~ with Dr Luke ~ He*ll keep an eye on you ! I want you fit and well for our next Missionary Journey not down with Adelphi Belly ! 1 Timothy 5 v 23 !

        My MUM is teetotal but she always had a bottle of brandy and put a drop in her tea *For Her Tummy*s sake ! She drinks about 15 cups a day ~ each with a wee drop ! Angela*s Dad introduced her to RIOJA Tinto which she now enjoys with her GORGONZOLA ! Dont tell the CHIANTI Merchant !

          As Michael said, what is dinner without a glass of wine with it, especially Rioja.
