Quenched

Whenever I’m feeling quite blah,
I will not unwind at a spa.
	I pour a cold beer.
	My woes disappear;
And all I can utter is…..Aaaah!

I can only wish to be so creative in such a succinct manner as this little limerick. In short, my jealously is overwhelming! And PS: Thanks ever so much for reading & commenting on "Thoughts are No Less Things" a few days ago. It was mighty nice of you to drop in and read it as the first poem when Poetry Soup returned from cyber "Never-Never Land." Saving you as a new Fav Poet. Yours truly & truly yours, Terry Martin
