A Royal Libation

You and I are at the sink We’re making martinis ‘bout time Don’t you think? Beefeaters my gin Your choice Bombay We’ve tried many others But don’t often stray You are very precise Mix yours 4 to 1 Me, not so particular Vermouth, almost none I’ll take an olive You like a twist If there’s no fruit You’ll use ‘Lemon Mist’ The first sip brings a smile And good conversation There’s nothing quite like This Royal Libation We sip and enjoy Gaze out at the view And offer a toast Here’s to Life, Here’s to Love, Here’s to you
