One for the Road
A last drink before a good cause

That was it, downed and gone now, no more
An empty glass, the finish that actually begins
Each year, tradition dictates the final drink
Guinness, the black gold, nectar of the gods
Now gone, my final drink, my last glass
June has faded away into the past tense
Before long the month of July rises up
A month to reflect, a time to be ⦠dry
No more drinking for me until the eighth
Raise the funds, to help fight the big āCā
Proudly I will say, in remembrance of dad
'Nothing for me thanks, I am Dry this July'
====================================================
I'm Dry this July to raise money to help people and families affected by Cancer, if you can and are willing, please donate here:
