Though no one listens

With Apologies…

What would you do if
I ran out of beer? Would you
Stand up and walk out….

for the art of it

Tragic

Perhaps lamenting
The spilling of a full beer
A steel guitar wails

The Session: Beer and Music

Yeah, I’m a Parrot Head

that first sip of beer
takes me to the same place as
Jimmy Buffett’s songs


Dance a Little Jig

with whiskey and stout
and some fast Irish music
to chase it all down


Ah… Youth

out after midnight
my brother on the guitar
sipping stolen beers

Written by Captain Hops.

the Session: Beer and Music

References: It’s time for The Session. This month it’s hosted by Tomme Arthur of The Lost Abbey. The theme is Beer and Music. The instructions are to share how you experience beer and music together.

As you can probably see from my haiku today, it was my brother that got all the musical talent in the family.

Here are some past haiku that touch on the beer and music theme:
