As a passenger coming home from the Steeler game last night
I popped on this thread and wow what a sight
It had Glee and Carols sitting in a tree
Our recovery get-together had made us a "WE"
There was fireworks, cheerleaders and one very ripe banana
(ty for that)
Our lives had been joined thanks to NYC and Santa (10,000 of them)
I must admit that my face had turned red
Rumors aside, still single is my bed
One fact for sure remains certain you see
A true friendship has grown between Carlos and Glee (haha, 3rd party me)
We talked on the phone for some hours on end
So meeting in person was easy to blend
But just as with Tanja, a gift I did bring
So meet me in person and I'll bring the bling!
We invited another from this group of we
But DG was busy on slopes she could ski
This meeting was first of what we hope will be more
Next is DC or Boston or Philly we'll tour
Our goal of these trips as we make our way
To have fun, enjoy and find meetings, AA
Our hope is that more will soon join us in
our recovery connection through thick and thin
Again I am told by my clock on the wall
Some crap I must do and some people to call.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Snooze,
Glee and I had a great time. We traversed in Undies posts to chronicle the day that following week. I may see if I can gather them together and post them as a blog on here?

Hey, I found this site that I thought y'all might enjoy. If it conjers a limerick...so be it!
Here are the most adorable terms for sexual intercourse from the last 600 or so years. Many of them have origins so obscure they hardly make sense at all, but that doesn’t detract from their bawdy adorability in the slightest. When it comes to the ol’ houghmagandy, a little mystery goes a long way.
1. Give someone a green gown (1351)
2. Play nug-a-nug (1505)
3. Play the pyrdewy (1512)
4. Play at couch quail (1521)
5. Ride below the crupper (1578)
6. Board a land carrack (1604)
7. Fadoodling (1611)
8. Put the devil into hell (1616)
9. Night physic (1621)
10. Princum-prancum (1630)
11. Culbatizing exercise (1653)
12. Join paunches (1656)
13. Dance the Paphian jig (1656)
14. Play at tray trip of a die (1660)
15. Dance Barnaby (1664)
16. Shot twixt wind and water (1665)
17. Play at rantum-scantum (1667)
18. Blow off the groundsills (1674)
19. Play hey gammer cook (1674)
20. Join giblets (1680)
21. Play at rumpscuttle and clapperdepouch (1684)
22. Lerricompoop (1694)
23. Ride a dragon upon St. George (1698)
24. Houghmagandy (1700)
25. Pogue the hone (1719)
26. Make feet for children’s stockings (1785)
27. Dance the kipples (1796)
28. Have one’s corn ground (1800)
29. Horizontal refreshment (1863)
30. Arrive at the end of the sentimental journey (1896)
31. Get one’s ashes hauled (1910)
AND...Happy Birthday ZERO!!

Carlos, it's said
Can spin a fine thread
Of that you can be sure!
Where on earth
Did you find such a dearth
Of euphemisms par excellence?
I thought I knew
Of lovin', a fine thing or two
There's obviously much more to learn
Can spin a fine thread

A utility pole snapped in town
Not from a drunk driver though.
Turns out it gave out from the weight
Of all the ice and snow
I'm glad my days of driving drunk
have become a distant memory
And checking police logs to see who did it
Doesn't any longer interest me.
Now I want to reach out a hand
when I see a problem drinker
I no longer trash talk, tease, and gossip
I no longer point my finger
I see the similarities in my misdeeds
With others who've had their own mishaps
In alcoholism there aren't better
Or worse mistakes - only fellowship.
My immaturity, ego, and emptiness
Needed to be replaced
With maturity, humility, and acceptance
And being realistic in what I expect.
Gossip, anger, hostility, and pain
Are falling by the wayside
And being replaced with peace and love
For you and your brethren far and wide.
I gnash, I struggle, I fall on hard times
Just like everyone else here
I finally realize it's ok to ask for support
Rather than a signal of failure
All of the tools for staying sober
Are guiding my recovery
They are providing a remarkable way to live
And are truly setting me free.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETHEART XOX
May you have the wonderful day you truly deserve .
That poem you wrote so typical of you
Thinking of others when it's about you
Good karma shall find you a sweetheart you are
Your poetry here makes you our star
Every day I wander in and then
Looking to see what dear Zero did pen
It's always a treat at times it is dark
But he never does fail to hit that ole mark
Sometimes those words pierce through my heart
That's why dear Zero your poems are an art
They hit a raw nerve like you're speaking of times
I was at my worst in my deepest decline.
I wish you the best on this day you were born
Sending vibes from Australia from dusk until dawn
So gather round our table Limerick friends dear
Whilst we eat virtual cake & give ZERO a cheer
Luvya Zero xox

Zero,
I know that feeling of being bereft
No one around and my heart in heft
Had my ashes all been hauled
The pipe in my house installed
Ahh, will tonight be my right or Ms Left?
And, as your birthday plan suggests...
I hope you got to give it away
An offering to turn round your day
You have quite a gift
for we when in drift
It's the best way to keep it, they say

No one around and my heart in heft

no need to participate

living clean and sober is my recommendation
and here is my main reason why
it's not about whether you live or die
it's about fully living
about loving and giving
and about redefining what it means to be high
life is an epic adventure
and this is not conjecture
you can cower or be bold
die now or grow old
leave the past and seize the present while creating your future
