Tired travelers traverse terrains
trekking the tempestuous torrent
Through thick timbers, they trudge
toward the transcending territory
The tourists thrill, throwing trills to the trees
then, their tattered threads trot through the threshold
Thelma's Tavern's turnout tops the theaters
There's tunes thumping
toes tapping
troublemakers talking
torches twitching
thugs triumphing
thirty townsfolk thirsting, tasting, tumbling
tipping to the taps,
teasing the timid,
tricking the traders
tangling their tongues
(those that tarry turn taboo)
Then, they toast to Thelma
toping through their thick tipples
Time ticks
the tavern turns tranquil
Tallying the tips
Thelma thanks the tempting tonics
til tonight's twilight.

I have a few stories and poems inside me that I want to share. Maybe, if I'm lucky, they'll reach people who'll enjoy them. 📖

This is so entertaining! My toes were tapping! Good work!
That's a Tolstoy tautogram there! Okay, I exaggerate a little, but it's still a full story. Great stuff Brin.
Oh wow, Brin!! So creative and a joy to read. I felt like I was out for a drink with friends :) Fantastic!
