Timothy Mcguire Poet Rhyme

Mr Whiskey

Mr. Whiskey and I went on a walk
He taught me how to dance
He told me how to think and talk
Said I could fly if I got the chance

He said I was the greatest man alive
There is nothing I should fear
Convinced me while we talked that I could drive
And introduced me to his buddy beer

So Mr. Whiskey, beer and I had a grand time
Living a carefree life
Until I crossed the double yellow line
And killed a man, his children and his wife

Ilene Bauer May 7, 2019 at 10:52 AM well written, timothy, with an ending that was unexpected. i hope this is fictional... Timothy Mcguire May 7, 2019 at 7:54 PM It is fictional in my life Ilene thank God but not where I live on a busy state highway. Thank you.

P.S. Awtry May 7, 2019 at 7:09 AM The way your poem switches from jolly to tragic is very effective and mirrors the reality exactly. Timothy Mcguire May 7, 2019 at 7:54 PM Thank you FRIEND!

Tom Cunningham May 7, 2019 at 2:25 AM A very strong message in your verse Timothy, drinking and driving don't mix well Tom Timothy Mcguire May 7, 2019 at 7:54 PM So right Tom
