Men in Bars

 

by the third drink

they’re quoting Shakespeare

and exhibiting the eccentricities

of your ex.

Ah, yes, "A man by any other name would wax in heat."
I'd say you are wrong,
if you weren't so right :)
Dylan

[Kelly Scheppers]

I'll take that as a compliment, thank you, Dylan!

But by just the second drink they were demons on the football field in high school, champions of industry in the board room with unmatched heroism on the battle field. They say bars are the worst place to meet someone you want to spend a lifetime with but it still happens and it happened to me. But true love dispenses justice without jury. And sometimes it doesn't matter where you are.......it finds you....great poem love...dana

[Kelly Scheppers]

Your take on this as being a love poem really surprises me. It wasn't my intent for it to come across that way, but if that's what it made you feel, then I'm all the more pleased you enjoyed it. That being said, this is quite a review. Thank you, Dana!

[Pete]

this cracked me up - unexpected but true. i guess that's why they call it happy hour. good stuff kelly ... :)

[Kelly Scheppers]

I've had a request for a "women in bars"...so stick around! Thanks, my friend!

[Einstein Noodle]

[Tate Morgan]

That has me laughing. Men we have no excuse

[Kelly Scheppers]

Thank you for your presence here, Tate. I appreciate it so much!

[Beccy]

Nail on the head; will say no more other than; 'There's many a man hath more hair than wit,'
and believe me, I've met a few of those in my time. :))

Beccy.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Oh Beccy, you've made my day! High five, my friend...thank you!

Very good Kelly and also has the ring of truth about it. I gave up alcohol completely 21 years ago this year, and am hopefully a better person for it. Nicely written and well observed.

[Kelly Scheppers]

Thank you, Tony. Congratulations on your 21 years - that's quite a milestone. You should be very proud of yourself!

[red93]

Thanks Kelly it does make a world of difference.

[Dave Brown]

can't remember the last time I bar hopped, 50yrs. plus, and now we barely drink, but the neighbors invited us up the other day and gave us one glass of the wine they make.
We were both so blotto we barely made it home

[Kelly Scheppers]

I bet you slept like a baby, too! Thanks for the smile, Dave!

[Lydia Shutter]

Three drinks and I would be asleep on the bar! Alcohol does seem to change the looks of everyone....not always for the better! :) Cute write, Kelly. You are still the queen of brevity! Lydi**

[Kelly Scheppers]

I'll prop you up, Lydi...what's your poison? Lol!! So funny, and thank you so much for the sweet compliment! "Hey Bartender, make that another one for me and my friend!" ; )

[Lydia Shutter]

:) Thanks so much, Kelly...make mine a Shirley Temple! LOL

[barleygirl]

I agree, by MY third drink, they all seem & sound the same! *wink! wink!* Thanks for a great poem! (((HUGS)))

[Kelly Scheppers]

Girl, you made me laugh out loud! Thank you, Margie!

[Lorry]

By their third drink...
woman, having mislaid her self respect,
remembers when this game more exciting,
as she suddenly finds it again,
on leaving it for someone else to play. 😊

[Kelly Scheppers]

...thank you, Lorry! Good to have you here!
