Clink, Clink Poem by Matthew Holloway

Clink, Clink

Rating: 5.0


I walk home in the evening
To the sound of bottles in a bag
The wine, beer and whisky
Tapping together like morse code
Talking to me clink, clink, clink
Like trying to pass a message
I fail to understand
Clink, clink, clink
It continues step by step
All the way to my door
Following my the stairs to bed
Clink, clink, clink
I pour a glass and rest
Guessing the message
Has been missed
