Gin and Juice

by Genevieve Sturrock

she makes her
orange juice
one glass
at a time
from a can
of concentrate
in her freezer

just a tablespoon
will do she says
as she tops
it off with gin

Now there is a unique way to kick off a morning, hehe!! You kicked off a whimsical and witty winners with this one, Genevieve. The title seems so subtle, then the last line sneaks up and grabs your olive. Good stuff!

Yeah, I'm with Dave F. on this one - it could be a sad image, though doesn't have to be so. I think your clever use of words gives this a couple of paths for my mind to wander down and I like that.
