Whiskey Poem by Kathleen West

Whiskey

Rating: 4.7


Pools of amber swirling in my glass
I anticipate a drink
Warming liquid running down my throat
Dull my senses so I don't think

I take my whiskey, like I take life
Straight up and sip it down
I embrace it all, the good and the bad
And my thoughts still go round and round
