A Man Who Loved To Drink

This is about a man who lost everything because he made the wrong choice.



Did you see a man who wanted to be drunk?
So much so that he poured wine into an ewer,
And he guzzled so much he couldn't think.
Allowing it go thru him and down a sewer.

Did you see a man who wanted to be drunk?
So much so he couldn’t even walk straight.
He tried to do his best, but fell off the brink,
And it’s into the icy waters he meet his fate.

Did you see a man who wanted to be drunk?
So much his children won't see him anymore.
But his wife was given a coat made of mink
By a new husband which they all could adore.

All too often an addiction to alcohol destroys not only the abuser, but the loved ones around them. Very nicely written Patricia.

Sad one, Patty; I don't understand why some people can't learn to put thad dam*ed bottle down and face life! I know too many people like that, and it makes me sick!

Have no respect (or tolerance) for habitual drinkers, especially those who maim/kill others by their getting behind a wheel blind drunk when they have no business AT ALL driving!! And yet they continue to get slapped on the wrists while they crack down on the smokers! How about CRACKING DOWN ON THE DRUNKS AND ALCOHOL??????

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :( >tears! <
