Poetry Postcard #7

Please note: I’m a little behind on posting and writing, due to some increased workload at my day job. However, I hope to get back on track this week.

I am participating in the August Poetry Postcard Challenge this month. Each day, I send a new postcard with a poem on the back to a recipient on the group list.  We began on July 27, but I am posting these a few days late, so that my pen pal can see them first. Enjoy!

New Year’s Eve

The big man leaned
into me, winked
and asked:

“Can you keep a secret?”

I swallowed hard on my scotch
smiled wide
and prayed that I could.
