The Greek mind must have had some vital fault, That they should stick to liquors so injurious -- (Wine, water, tempered p'raps with Attic salt) -- And not at once invent that mild, luxurious, And artful beverage, Beer. How the digestion Got on without it, is a startling question. --------------------------- Kevin Fiish There once was a man who did not have a fear when he sat down and drank a six pack of beer his belly did bloat, his weight it did rise but the beer gave the feeling of being so wise The thought of it cooling, so frosted and near in the mug it sits so golden that beer the taste is so good never bitter or queer bringing always a laugh and never a tear Many a time in that room full of cheer a wrong emotion did come from that beer it was never right to hold it so dear replacing importance with just another cold beer ----------------------- Herbet Nehrlich For those of you who like their beer I'm writing what you need to hear. The vitamins B-six and two are present and so good for you. A bit of substance folic acid keeps belly folds from going flaccid. Though beer is one good diuretic (and, in excess, a strong emetic) so let the doubters drink their booze and in the morning face the blues. Australia makes some lovely Ale and I must end this little tale and grab a can as cold as ice it's great I have no other vice. ---------------------------------- Karen Pisake I've never made a fortune And it's prob'ly too late now; But I don't worry 'bout that much, I'm happy anyhow! Beer everyday is my way Lift'n a pint is really nice. I'm drinkin' good beer, 'Cause my mug has overflowed! Be a Beer Muse. Send your poems/stories to webmaster@beernexus.com -- |
