Back In The Day.

Goldfinch60



The picture came upon the screen

And took me straight back,

Back to my times in the pub.

It could have been me,

A pint on the table,

A fag in my hand,

And playing cards.

Such a wonderful time

So many years ago.

Good friends,

Good company,

Lots of laughs,

And the beer was wonderful.

A treasured memory in my life

  • Comment from author about the poem: Occasionally on a Saturday night the singing beer would be served, and one of my friends, Don, would sing 'O Sole Mio'. He looked very much like Mario Lanza. Great times in my younger days.
