I read this on
rebelchild090's poetry thread and just felt that I had to honour it by posting it here.
I love the tempo of it, so fast...yes, it still achieved everything to be said.
---------------------------
Lets raise our glasses
and lets give a toast
now turn all our eyes
to the standing host
"Here's to love
"Here's to love lost
Here's to love gained
Here's to loves pleasure
Here's to loves pain
Here's to the happy
Here's to the sad
Here's to the good
Here's to the bad
Here's to the young
Here's to the old
Here's to the silent
Here's to the bold
Here's to love
and all whom it aquires
Here's to love
For it never tires"
Slipping a smile
a turn of the lip
Set down your glasses
now take a sip
