Our Goblet

Our goblet

                      We shall lay no longer in silent rest
                      Though whispered words, good-by;
                      As winter in its dark repose
                               Waits…
                      Till we drink our goblet dry

                      Still gaze with eyes that often see
                      And brush back your hair of gold,
                      For here wait all illusions held
                      When emotions hurry by

                      Now gone this day to twilight
                      Then after that to dark,
                      As recollections from our memories wait
                      Till we drink our goblet dry

I'Ll Eat and Drink

Cooking with my true chef’s touch
Its why I like my food so much
All the time it hit’s the spot
You’d think it was a master plot
Olive oil and everything
Oh what joy some food can bring
You can roast it, toast it
Or chill it and grill it
Depends on what your going to plate
To serve food hot please don’t be late
Desserts will come when dinner is done
Some food is chilled I’ll have to run
Time to clean the mess that’s made
And put away my big chefs blade
I’ll go for drinks and socialize
Yes I drink its no surprise
I’ll eat and drink then get some rest
To this my friends they will attest
Its time to rest and close my eyes
All I see is food what a surprise
