Neighbour’s cat drops in
If he could open bottles
I’d hide the cold beer

Free!

A Sailors Prayer

Tags

beer, doves, poem, poetry, sailors, throats

Taught to me when I was a mere pup by an old tar who had rounded the horn under sail:

Sailors Prayer
Oh Lord above send down a dove
with wings as sharp as razors
to slit the throats of those below
what sells bad beer to sailors.

they don’t write ’em like that any more.

A beer with lunch
by the river in sunshine.
Dozy afternoon.
