Give Me Women, Wine, And Snuff

Give me women, wine, and snuff
Until I cry out "hold, enough!"
You may do so sans objection
Till the day of resurrection;
For bless my beard they aye shall be
My beloved Trinity.

    a playful, almost irreverent poem. amusing, to say the least, and a nice tidy length of six short lines. bravo.
