This love poem is based on the Frank Sinatra classic song
'One More for the road' its a lighthearted thing sorry for the swearing. The song text is in italics and coloured blue


One More For The Road by M.A.Meddings

'Its a quarter to three
Theres no one in the place
‘cept you and me'


Hey Joe where the f***
Have they gone


Well Sir been no one here
Since ten past one
Didnt you notice?
Too pissed I suppose


'Well set em up Joe
I got a little story
I want you to know'


OMG not again
That dame
Still in your brain?
Forget her she aint
Worth it


'I'm drinking my friend
To the end
Of a brief episode'


And how many times
have I heard that


'Gimme one for my baby
And one more for the road'


F*** off
You had too many already
Besides
I am ready to close


'Gimme one for my baby
and one more for the road'


Oh! ok Mr Sinatra
but this is the last one
tonight


And hey man
Is she really
That special ?

Oh yes Joe she is

artful and well thought out. You can now say: "I did it my way!"

Smoky deserted bar room. Sinatra owns the stool. Bartender tired and loyal. I feel the ambience of this. You captured it and brought it to life. Well done, Frank...i mean Mike. : ) kathy
