THE DRINK
There it lay before me taking the shape of my glass.
A little sip at a time and it fades.
Was it worth leaving my place of abode, I asked silently.
The search for a quite place became one of concentration and focus.
The night fades gradually and the liquid turned into water.
What a transformation.
Quick as it enters so does it go.
Time fades but the essence will last just a while.
People were all around me
And though the drink was what we had in common
We couldn't help the fact that our hearts resonated with the music.
We nodded to one tune and another....
