This sounds like someone didn't make their AA meeting, and can't reach the buoy, a wonderful though bit sad 5-7-5 poem, love the chosen artwork very appropriate****kahpot

Careful you don't get too close. Viewing Paradise while imbibing can have dangerous consequences. Once could forget where they were and wander off or stand too close to a bubbling brook an fall in face first.

Oh, no, is the wife out of town? Or did she leave you to your own devices in a big playground you'd rather not tackle...? :) ;) Always do so enjoy your offerings of 5-7-5 and such...they make me THINK!! :) ;) Thanx for sharing, Sir Bill! ;) Yvette

    Just a reminder of the years of deployment and being alone.

This meets the contest requirements beautifully with a correct line and syllable count. I hope your fruit sidecar includes a life preserver in that drink :). Good luck in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.

Bill!

Another nice 5-7-5. It has meaning to consider. Methinks you really meant to make 'life guard' one word, but it can take on a completely different meaning if two.

An eye-catching illustration for sure!

Been there, done that. A Tequila Sunset.
You tell a little story here, Bill. Character, setting, conflict and resolution. Hard to beat that in 17 syllables.

Best of luck.

Peace, Lee

Unfortunately alcohol is responsible for many fading away from paradise and into the abyss without their life guard! I have seen it happen on a night out! Poignant words here Bill, love Dolly x
