It was a damp and dreary Tuesday
in the evening at the bar
The tavern's door was open
when she entered like a star

She asked for a 'Cuba Libre'
as she brushed my arm aside
My nostrils flared from perfume
as she turned to me and sighed

Her hair was thick and flaxen
and her eyes deep almond brown
Her lips were full and painted
and curved as if to frown

Soon my gaze was recognized
and she asked what was my thought
Her beauty, I said, was stunning
and could it well be bought?

She smiled and said, "all things my friend,
are always best when shared
And when it comes to lovin' me
two souls will then be bared"

She finished her drink and smiled at me
then turned with grace to leave

....saying

"And when next you fall in love my friend,
perhaps you'll think of me"

...just bein' Bluesy

Instructions upon the give and take from a lovely lady . . . Almost, but not quite as fulfilling as walking out that door with her.

I doubt it, if she asks for a, 'Cuba Libre', most who ask for such are now dead.  Lol. I Love your tale, you old rascal . I may never fall in love again.....but I'll think of you. x

You're right about that Redstart. It's just a rum and coke to most who indulge themselves today. The lime slice fits much more quietly. Appreciate the humor and the comment.

Bluesy, I was unkind and a tad silly. Can I give you a hug?
