Poetry
Through the years I’ve written a few small poems. If I can round them all up, I’ll put them on here, maybe highlighting a different one every now and then. Links to the various poems are the tabs above.
Most of the poems posted here were written in one sitting and never revisited or edited. I welcome comments or suggestions, good or bad. The comments may just help me to refine the poems to the point of being good.
Murphy Toasts
By PintofStout
.
Join me Lads & Lasses
And raise your pint glasses
This toast should not be missed.
Hurry! Before we’re pissed.
To what are we drinking this fine occasion?
Ah Ha! Here’s to yourself then!
.
.
.
Here’s a toast for health
Here’s a toast for cheer
Here’s a toast for no other reason
But to drink more beer!
.
.
.
May you live a life long and joyful
May your nights be warm and your days be bright
May the treasures of life to you be shown
And may the road rise up to meet you
If you should to pass out on the way home.
.
.
.
May your eyes sparkle gaily
May your smile shine brightly
And may your wife not be angry
If you drink in the pub nightly.
.
.
.
Here’s to the sunshine
That warms the Earth we live on.
Here’s to the moonshine
That warms everything else.
.
.
.
Listen, Friends, gather near
Let’s raise our glasses and cheer
For all our friends who are not here
Let our friendship be the beacon
Returning them to our embrace sincere!

Very nice, dude. We should recite this from now on the opening days of WOF.
