Inalienable right.

sonnet in tetrameter

Inalienable right.

 

All hail to ale, good honest ale

 the comforter when all else fails.

The lack of ale makes stout hearts fail.

Attempts to ban it doomed to fail.

When things are looking at their worst.

A man has need to quench his thirst

Ale is what men think of first

A man would truly be accursed.

Should he attempt to interfere

between a thirsty man and beer.

There is no doubt its very clear.

Without ale life would be too drear.

It is a right for which I’d fight.

Ripe nappy ale is my delight.

My best day of my life was a homemade ale and sitting in the chair at Monterey where Hemingway drank watching the ocean and woman. Of course. Poem is amazing. You told a very good story. Thank you.
