Cider

My recent trip to England inspired me to write this socio-politically significant piece


Cider

Pour me another pint of cider
Sweet elixer from the tree
God knows there's nothing wrong with apples
And cider's very good for me

Pour me another pint of cider
Shiny, warming liquid gold
Happy, hardy rounds of laughter
Sing with every story told.

Pour me another pint of cider
Wholesome sunshine from a glass
And don't dare say I've had too many
Till I fall down on my ass.
