Bar

 

Quiet is the crowded bar. 

Long leather chairs to sink in. 

Whiskey to drift me afar. 

The ice cubes swirl, old tales spin. 

A few sips make me dipsy.  

I see a shimmering beach.

I am happy though at sea. 

The present beyond my reach. 

And the bar lights turn warm-white.

The past is all that I sight.
