Doing a 180

Tipsy
Lipsy

Too much
liquor

made her
snicker

balk and
bicker

acted 
foolish

downright 
mulish

shamed poor 
Mama

with her 
drama

angered 
Father 

such a
bother

almost
tragic---

then like
magic

transfor-
mation

brings e-
lation

cele-
bration!

I am glad there was finally magic, whew! Somtimes we just do not think before sipping that drink.
