A Bloody Mary

Ole Bloody Mary’s a friend of mine
with splash of vodka and twist of lime.
tomato crush
which makes me flush,
yet, she leaves me out of sorts at times.

Very inspiring...maybe this is what I need! Hi Debbie, was looking at your haiku contest and now I am totally confused whether it is 5,7,5 which makes 17 syllables if I recall correctly you are requiring 14?? Thanks Julie
