Before-word: Very special and fun thanks to the bloggers/readers who joined in on last week’s post [see it 👉here👈] to co-create a poem with me which I’m posting this week.
So, here’s to OUR poem: “That Drink”! Look out for your words/lines as you read /listen along.
Said the pineapple to the lime Sun’s blazing across the skyline ‘Tis the mixologist’s shining moment That drink to relieve beach goers’ torment
Ice, pineapple blended together Now that’s a real thirst quencher Uggh, pineapples belong on pizza! Nah-ah! Bring on the mix, hype up the pleasure
Said the beach goer to the drink mixer Pour me another for me and my partner Life doesn’t get much better than daiquiri by the sea Ahhhh, that’s just what the doc prescribed for me
Tangy, tasty, a cocktail refreshing Mhmm — YESSS — first-sip reliving Brilliantly garnished like a summer’s day sun Gulp gulp — NOOO — it’s all done!?
Ahoy! Ahoy! Thanks a lot fella! De-lish delightful drink—deliciosa! This is the life relaxing on the beach A taste of paradise all within reach
Heart sipping heaven’s sweet serving That refreshing drink beach bodies craving Resting now embracing love Cooling soul like a gift from above
At last What a blast Just what I needed Thirst superseded
That drink!

It’s coming up to 78 degrees Celsius. It’s HOT! It’s HUMID!!
This drink is offered to you from under the shelter of a beach umbrella, a cool wind picks up off the ocean waves, you take the first sip and you say: ________________ [fill in the blank]
