Written for: The Twiglets #75 – “empty bottles”
He collected her stash
of vodka bottles
emptied contents in sink
threw bottles in trash
wondered if he had found
them all.
Empty wine bottles
on the mantel
each one tells a tale
When Bert drank, he drank plenty
His garage was filled up with empties
He took all of the bottles
got cash, and then waddled
to the liquor store and spent every penny

Aaah, love those limericks!

I know someone who tried that with packs of cigarettes… tossing them –
Eventually that person went from 4 packs to 0. Sometimes intervention helps.
While on vacation I found a wine bottle in the hotel laundry room trash… with a pretty rose and a glass stopper – I don’t know it’s story so I’ll have to create one 😉
Keep up the Limericks 🙂

Relatives – and choices.
Not entirely my story to tell.
