Premium Member out of all the gin joints

out of all the gin joints in Chicago
she had to choose this one
she had an uncanny likeness to the woman he had lost
he could not stop staring


Premium Member A Man Named McGuin

who liked his women and his sloe gin

he took both to bed
and woke up next day with a sly grin

Premium Member A Game of Gin Rummy 7x7

Nights like this are made for us
Crescent moon smiles down; 
broadly
We walk along the river
Coke and a picnic basket
With two flashlights we begin
Gin rummy, we play all night

Premium Member Gin (Etheree)

One 
bottle 
standing tall
in the center
of my universe.
I orbit around her
from dawn to dusk like a dead 
moon on a never ending course. 
She is my only reason to rise
yet is now the bane of my existence.

Another Gin and Tonic Horn Limerick

Another Gin and Tonic Horn Limerick

Must I drink another gin and tonic
To tolerate Trump who is moronic
Jumping from hole to hole like a rabbit
Constantly complaining when cannot have it
Grows on you like a plague that is bubonic.

Premium Member gin joint ginger

gin joint ginger
I had heard of her of course
we all had

but we thought she was fictitious
when we saw the barkeep’s face we knew better

He is usually unflappable
tonight he could barely speak

she had taken his heart
and his tongue it seems

The Wisdom of Wine and Gin

My hair has receded and my belly grown fat
There’s hair growing in my ears and I don’t like that
My joints ache all the day and I have troubles with peeing
I’m tired all the time and have glasses for seeing
Gravity has taken over putting life in a downward spin
No wonder I enjoy drinking a little wine and gin

That Man Called Gin

Spiced with no pinch of Sugar 
He was all salt and white vinegar
He was new in someway
But in others he was grey

Man of little words
Yet words were his sword
Fearless and firm
His world was built with a pen 

Rare but real
Many did he drill 
Paper as his block
Humans as his flock

Nations did he build
Wisdom as the tool
Immortal were his works
Though mortal he was

Gin Again

Gin Again
On the mountain top
Old grandpa is making his gin again
He presses the corn to fill the pot.
All the way to the top.
The bottles they rattle with the wind just waiting for that gin.
Grandpa he tastes with delight.
Saying it will be gin again before night.
The smell fills the air that might bring the law.
Grandpa is all most drunk.He stumbles and yells 
It's Gin again

Trance Gin Dear

aka

           HALLO WEENIE!

Police say a woman named Gidget
Took a fancy to a man's digit 
She knew it would grow
But you ought to know
His digit now hangs on a midget!


Added by Belle Bellevue:  

The midget was proud of his digit
He wondered just how Gidget did it
It hung to his knees
And swung in the breeze 
Witch Gidget was wetting her britches

Tran's Gin, Dear

A crotch-heavy man called, "The Goat"
Ostentatiously loved to gloat
Until Donald Trump
Groped more than his rump
Thus clinching the Red Dawn Key vote!

*Readers should keep in mind Trump's greatest 
success has been focusing the world's attention 
on a Vanity Wall, whilst "All the President's Men"
enter vacant federal building and offices to 
plant/alter/remove "evidence" and documentation!

Concern For Next of Kin

You who had seen my next of kin
Dining and wining near a bin
And you forgot to raise a din
Or had minded your Gripping Gin… 

It was A War you did not win,
Though Loss reports not on The Skin
Like would Incisive Pricks of Pin
Or handiwork of Wounding Tin…

Your love, please, extend to My Kin
In Water Fish that needs Your Fin:
Never mind his mischievous grin
Nor like God be counting his sin…

Premium Member Gin and Sin

Gin and Sin 


          I once stayed at grandiose inn,
          With rowdies, who reeked of gin!
          Their vulgar voices louder than tin.
          
          The worse thing in the world is sin.
          Nothing on earth,shall ever do me in.
          Protected by angels, from human vermin!

Premium Member Different Ways To Mix Gin and Volka

Gin with tonic water
Is my favourite drink
Sometimes I change it
From tonic water
To something different
Mixing cranberry juice
With a bite of gin
Or vodka with cranberry
         juice
I enjoy vodka with ginger
          ale
Or gin with ginger ale
Or gin with or vodka with 
     with ginger ale
I like to mix it differently
Enjoying what I create 
No matter what I create
Gin with tonic is my favourite

Sloe Gin

Feb-ru-ary –
Snow-white blossom,
Winter hedgerow shining.

Now September –
Hedgerow harvest:
Sloe-black, slow, black,
Black fruit with purple bloom.

Sloe gin, slow, gin,
Let the alchemy begin.
Blackthorn, black fruit,
Steeped in finest London gin.

Locked in Kilner
In dark cupboard.
Wait till dark December ......


Ruby colour,
Rich aroma.
Delicious sip,
Post-prandial
Christmas dinner nip.

I made a promise to write sins

Sometimes I wonder,
if I’m wasting my seconds
trying to prove love
lasts longer 
when you drown it with gin.

Her ghost circles back—
again, again—
the Poppy wears 
a saccharine, serrated grin—
(oh, how I’ve missed it)
nestled among 
my worn-out keycaps.

I didn’t mean to write her—
I keep pressing delete—

But she never blinks.
That's when I know–
I must
write and write and write and write—
or she erases me.

Lover's Gin

While I was sat drinking lemonade
the winter’s chilling sun started to fade
the calm before the storm 
perhaps another dawn
found in fizzy dreams of lemonade.

A hazy moonlit beach then appeared
my senses numbing as I had feared
as a pretty girl winked
at me, I dare not blink
in case she then went and disappeared.

The summer bronze reflected on her skin
her jewel like eyes just drank me in
an orchid in my gaze
to banish winter days
and I was caught in a lover’s gin.
