roll

 

Have you ever felt like this?


 

cheers!

 

One of the things I've missed most during Lock-down v.1 and Lock-down v.2 is seeing friends and family. One of the last social engagements I enjoyed prior to retreating in-doors was with Terry. Every few months we treat ourselves to a lunch in town followed by a tour of the local hostelries.
 
One of our favourite haunts is a subterranean cellar called the Post Office Vaults. It has a stupendously long, and at times rather expensive, menu of bottled Belgian beers. In an effort to recreate a cyber version of our regular outings we both ordered the same crate of Belgian beer from an on-line supplier and worked our way through it while chatting on Facetime.
 
It was great fun, but I can't wait to see Terry again in person once the pandemic is under control.

don't shed a tear

 
 

don't shed a tear
as 
I pass by
clothed in rime and dew
rub your eyes
see the coming cold
and rejoice
don't shed a tear
