The Genesis Of Beer

Not be confused with Guinness

The Genesis Of Beer

In the beginning there was salt
And it was good and tasty and dry 
Anyway it was hot outside
Mouths became parched and thirsty
Later came fish then amphibians
Dinosaurs and birds began to fly
Without a pilot's license or any training
People followed later with a thirst for more  
They invented pretzels that came with salt
They drank beer to quench their thirst
They drink it here on Earth because
In heaven there ain't no beer
That is why we drink it here

Authors note:  Genesis - not to be confused with Guinness.
The author apologies for the line, “In heaven there ain't no beer that is why we drink it here.” He regrets it because it is goofy and clearly he is not the originator.  He regrets it because he will get caught using it and because “ain't” is poor grammar and “ain't” ain't a word.  He begs for your forgiveness for his seeming references to biblical beginnings found in the bible.  God will certainly punish him for any misrepresentation of creation matters.  He will surely relinquish his drinking privileges in heaven.  (That includes beer.  That is why the author will drink it here.)

No beer in heaven? Damn, and you know if they have it in the other place, it's going to be warm, to say the least.

Hi John, Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. With a name like yours you should have no problem getting an ice cold beer wherever you go. Have a great day. Earl

Ha! I really enjoyed this poem, especially the line "In heaven there ain't no beer". Its an especially quirky poem, but a fun and smart one at that.

Hi Emmy, Thank you. So glad you enjoyed it. I did not know you were left handed....or is that a mirror image? In any case Ouch! That has got to hurt. Great picture. What fun! Have a wonderful evening. Earl
