And maybe just one more before I sleep. ------------- Marcus Kevin Fishly 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 ------------ William Butler Yeats A statesman is an easy man, he tells his lies by rote. A journalist invents his lies, and rams them down your throat. So stay at home and drink your beer and let the neighbors vote. ------------------------ Oliver Holmes Let schoolmasters puzzle their brain, With grammar, and nonsense, and learning; Good liquor, I stoutly maintain, Gives genius better discerning.

If an angel out of heaven Brings you other things to drink, Thank him for his kind intentions, Go and pour them down the sink. ------------- Byran Cardask Come, brothers, share the fellowship We celebrate to-night; There ’s grace of song on every lip And every heart is light! But first, before our mentor chimes The hour of jubilee, Let’s drink some ale to good old times, And good times yet to be! Clink, clink, clink! Merrily let us drink! -------------------- Eugene Field If our own life is the life of a flower (And that’s what some sages are thinking), We should moisten the bud with a health-giving flood And ‘t will bloom all the sweeter— Yes, life ’s the completer For beer drinking, and drinking, and drinking. ------------------- John Cooper It is of good ale to you I'll sing And to good ale I'll always cling, I like my mug filled to the brim And I'll drink all you'd like to bring, O, good ale, thou art my darling, Thou art my joy both night and morning. It is you that helps me with my work And from a task I'll never shirk While I can get a good home-brew, And better than one pint I like two -------------- Special thanks all for sending in the poems!
