The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Blue Eyes, Red Wine

The day my life went all topsy turvy,
Was day I had an affair with a beauty,
Ah, Blue eyes are a weakness of mine,
And Christmas party was full of wine!

That day started like any other day,
work and home, nothing else to say,
showered and dressed in party mood,
Looking for an evening like any dude!

I must have seen her or she saw me,
eyes found each other in office party,
She floated her body at disco pace,
Her blue blue eyes, fixed on my face!

She was young and I guessed thirty,
I acted decent yet was for her thirsty,
Wine and music both lead us astray,
Together in bed, than another day!

At breakfast table the next morning,
Exhausting night and still yawning,
Found her Spanish, her name Isabella
unhappily wed to an old fella!

Something more I learnt of the lass
She was married to my tyrant boss!
The day my live went topsy turvy,
Was the day I went to the office party!

The day my life went whacko!
