Drinking Song

Bring the wine, come let’s dine and have our fill Of life’s best, be my guest, the world forget; Let’s have fun, work is done, I’ll foot the bill. What, your wife? Have a life, man, make her vexed Just this time; ‘tis no crime to let her fret For a while, make her rile--even perplexed. Stay with me, your mind free from care--don't frown; Here’s a toast, make the most, the night’s young yet; Fill your cup, raise it up, our sorrows drown. October 23, 2024 Baguio City, Philippines
