to A.H.
Another year’s come and gone,
Another couple tons of beer.
It’s something to reflect upon -
Like Hamlet or, indeed, King Lear.
To drink or not – is hard to choose,
If you do not have health or money,
For both are needed for the booze,
And life without - isn’t funny.
The choice is easy otherwise
And to be taken by the clever.
So, here comes our wise advice:
Stay in good health and drink forever!
