Need a poem

[stilleto]

I'm having a cocktail party in February, shortly after valentine's day.

I want to put a poem on the invitation (I make my own, very cool and funky invitations) but i'm drawing a blank.
can anyone think of something?

Can be eerie, strange, cute, etc. but i'd like it to include something about it being 'time to party' or 'have a drink' or about getting together with friends, etc.

Yes - the pheasants and the fen do it;
The robins and the wrens do it;
The roosters and the hens do it;
The wild Comanche braves do it,
The Esquamaux in caves do it.
And kings and queens are slaves to it.
Temptation all will bring to it,
Parsons doff their pantaloons to it;
Goats in fall and spring do it;
And boars bend their necks and swoon to it;
Moths and mites in cheese do it;
And butterflies and bees do it;
And frogs settle down and freeze to it;
Cold earth worms cone up in swarms to it;
And underneath the trees do it;
Well-- I'm but a lonely woman,
With every pulse and feeling human,
But I'm not the folks called "common".
And I'll never do it!
The deed is rash, and I would rue it,
I'd scorn the act, and well you know it,
But - Well -- I'll lay still, and let YOU do it.

The dew may kiss the morning grass,
The clock may kiss the hours past,
A Knight may kiss a maiden lass,
And you my friends... drink hardy!

Too much work, and no vacation,
Deserves at least a small libation.
So hail! my friends, and raise your glasses;
Work's the curse of the drinking classes.

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

Oh, what a splendour fills all space!
Without bit, spur, or rein to race,
Let's gallop on the steeds of wine
To heavens magic and divine!

I'm never getting married...But you can save it for a barn raising party or something.
























and by the way.........I would kill NOT to live in a city and be a country bumpkin so you do know I'm just jealous!

Here we lie in sweet repose,
belly to belly and nose to nose.
After the joys of passion have passed,
it's back to back and ass to ass.

;-) no charge for that one......

I do not know of a good drinking poem but was at a dinner one night and heard a good toast. Was a formal dinner so this toast wasn't appropriate, but was very funny. The toaster said... "Here's to fire...... not the kind that takes down shacks and shanties, but the kind that takes down pants and panties!"

Anyone else know of good toasts??

can you tell?....

True, my Masters in Biz is not exactly represented in my poem. I was just trying to get to a level country folk could understand.

Here's to the pole that's always swole,
eternally looking for a deep dark hole.
Ain't no rubber that'll stretch that far,
won't fit in a barrel or a mason jar.
So here's to the hole and not your hand,
Here's a toast to our swolen gland!

hehehehe.... college days were good for something.
