Once the clock struck 4 it was BEER,
To be drank until bedtime was near,
Then a light bulb went on,
I realized that 'This isn't Fun',
Now I dance through the day without fear

I don't want some
I told the rum
Tired of being a bum
Living in a slum

My ego likes to think
There's always reason to drink.
But vodka steals reason,
There's no drinking season,
When I have the SR link!

There once was girl, forlorn,
Who felt beaten, weak, and torn.
She thought life was the cause,
(Or maybe her flaws?)
Till sobriety made life, reborn.

Eternal, I broke your rhyming rules, but here goes:

Some people can handle their juice like a pro,
For others the juice is a noose and they know
That one step down that slippery slide
Will expose the side they desire to hide!

As a child I picked up the drink
no longer did I have to think
I poured booze on the pain
was left circling the drain
Thank God I got out of the sink

I didn't think I could do it
I really thought I blew it.
Then SR appeared,
And calmed down my fear
And held my hand right through it.

There once was a girl with martini,
Who waited in vain for a Genie.
Till she named her own wish,
And had her last swish,
And Vodka and She became fini!

I collected empty bottles of vodka
like others collect random tchotchkes.
But my little hobby
turned me into a blobby
and the devil declared, "Now I've gotcha!"

I wish I was good at this stuff.
I got sober, ain't that enough?
Put my browsing on hold
so I could be so bold
as to make a rhyme in the buff.

Not quite a limerick here, but you can sing it to the tune of Tina Turner's' I will survive
**************************************

Once I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without a bottle at my side
Then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
So I grew strong and I learnt to get along.

Now you see me, somebody new
I'm not that messed up little person so in need of you
So I've taken all the bottles and I poured them down the sink
I've all my friends on S.R to who I have a link.

Then you came back, from off the shelf
You just let me pour you into my self
Well you can take that stupid cork
Before you make me balk

Just go away, back out my life
I don't want you any more
For the first time I'm beginning to feel alive
I will survive, I will survive.

*********************

Corny or what? Lol

Gxx

I once looked for answers in a bar
To questions pondered near and far
A beer and a shot
And a DUI I got
And now they won't let me drive a car

I once found a link called SR,
With members from near, and from far.
Their help and their attitude,
Filled me with gratitude
And I don't even know who they ARE !!

I once stumbled through my days,
Spent nights in a vodka made haze.
I had not a clue
what NOT drinking could do,
Till I quit and have since been amazed!

There is really no way to convey,
How I finally came to this day.
But sobriety's grown
And if I had known,
I would have begun yesterday!

Grace loved the reworking of I survive. I can see it at Kareoke!!

When drinking I was trapped in a bubble
And my emotions were all in a muddle
Now sober I find
Life not so unkind
And my spirit is free of the struggle

Can't believe I am up at this hour
might as well hop in the shower
The alarm will be singing its' tune
and I'll probably turn into a prune
At least alcohol no longer has power

oh thee loved her wine
so much she lost her mind
woke up one day without a dime
then realized it was all a crime
damm wine

There was once a girl called Jo
Who thought wine was the way to go
It all got a bit out of hand
But three full days sober she stands
Thanks to SR she kissed goodbye to woe!
