The Bristers.

Goldfinch60



Into the restaurant we went,

Went to book our table,

Book it for the weekend.

Said my name and room number,

They queried it ,

There was another person there,

Another person with my name.

Brister is an unusual name

So is not seen often.

We then went to the show room

To book our table there for the weekend,

And there were two other couples

Both waiting to book as well.

The first one was asked his name,

And he said Brister,

He was the other one.

I told him my name

And we chatted.

The four of us spent time together

To try and work out the relationship

But could not work it out,

But with our time together

We had a wonderful time,

As he and I had the same outlook,

The same outlook on life.

We were and thought the same,

Thought the same on many things

We even used the same sayings

When we met others,

Saying “Good morning young man”,

So alike we could have been brothers.

We came to the conclusion

That we were Bristers,

Two people with a fine life

And we will keep in contact.
