High spirits

They say drinking gin
Is a sin.
And whiskey can make you
Quite frisky..
But nothing rhymes
With vodka.

(Just practising)

    Frances, when I only saw the first lines of your practise poem on my dashboard, I instantly thought "...but what rhymes with vodka?" :-)
    I wonder whether anyone will come up with something!

    By the time you get through the gin and whiskey, who cares what rhymes with vodka! x

    What rhymes with Vodka? That would make an interesting competition.

    But vodka is clear,
    so drink it my dear,
    and no will will be the wiser!

      This looks as though it needs Tizer somewhere...(do they still make Tizer?)

    I can do sherry, beer, brandy ... and going to the ruder end of the spectrum, grappa and rum. I never drink vodka, so it doesn't apply.

      Tim you don't have to drink it to write about it!

    I'm currently drinking wine
    It tastes absolutely divine

      I'm a wine person, too. But vodka and orange juice is lovely!

    Whilst drinking vodka
    Some people read Kafka
    And some dance a polka

    Just started reading " Dead Ernest" and loving it! The pyjamas under the pillow sentence is sheer genius!
