First Drink

My first legal drink
Was anti-climatic
I had gone out 
To celebrate my legal age
At age 21
I could finally 
Get a drink in a bar

I wanted to get 
carded that night
But no one looked at my ID

I had gone to a bar
When I was 14 
No one ever carded me
As I looked much older

Finally got carded
At age 32!
I thanked the guy
Saying he made my day
