Druthers

This was written just for fun. A blog I read, BrewNSpew issued a challenge in October. Sometimes, I love to procrastinate so I took some time to reflect and to think about this challenge. Finally, I decided to take on the challenge. I enjoyed the process :-)

The challenge was to write a story or a poem of 5 lines or less, using the word druthers. For those that are not aware of the word, druthers is a defined as a noun, informal; one’s own way, choice, or preference and a noun, slang; wishes, desires, preferred alternatives.

So here is my five line poem:

As my life moves on, I discover

That if I could have my druthers

Life would be enjoying the sunset,

While walking along the Inlet

With my Brothers
