Popular Post Ash Bridges Posted August 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2020 Well it looks like my Robert Frost knock-off didn’t land, so let’s try Biggie. Yeah, this poem is dedicated To all the US-based B&Ms that can’t sell me nothin To all the people who live in the house I’m smoking in front of Made me freeze my ass off just trying to have a Petit Corona in the dead of winter and all the cigars from Havana You know what I'm sayin'? It's all good, baby baby. It was all a dream, I used to read Aficianado magazine LFD and Tatuaje took up my humi-scene Hangin' bands on my wall Every Saturday, massive ring gauge NC with a way-too-open draw I hit my smoke shop, feelin’ like I’m on top Smokin’ Oliva V, sippin on Johnny Walk Way back, when I had the Melanio stack Figurado cap to match. Remember Le Bijou? Uh huh, uh huh, I never thought Castro could make a better cigar. Now I smoke a prime light ‘cause I buy right Before I get paid, shell out for the 898 A born winner, great before or after dinner Remember when I used to smoke Fuentes? Beginner. Peace to CAO, CLE, Rocky P Nicaraguan Romeo, Dominican Monte I'm smokin’ up like you thought I should Check the humi, all Cuban, all full, It’s all good. And if you don’t know, now you know cigars. You know very well “You have yourself a box” Don't let embargoes drown Out good cigars You had a few But not that many But now you found the source To stock up good and plenty I made the change from a common leaf To up close and personal with Serie D And I'm far from cheap I smoke Winnies with my peeps all day Spread love, it's the Club Czar way. The Cubay, Havana Club keep me pissy Canadians used to diss me Now they pay taxes while I’m VAT free I never thought it could happen, this Cuban stuff I was too used to smokin’ crappy stuff Now Bolis stay close like butter on toast Stocked herfador with me up and down the East Coast Cohiba in Queens, QDO for weeks Sold-out LEs, vintage and antique And I buy without fear Hide the credit card so my wife don’t hear Lunches, brunches, stogies by the pool Considered a fool, but my smokes make your mouth drool Stereotypes of a leaf brother misunderstood And it's still all good And if you don't know, now you know cigars You know very well “You have yourself a box” Don't let embargoes drown Out good cigars You had a few But not that many But now you found the source To stock up good and plenty Cohiba Robusto, Cohiba Genios When I was dead broke, man, I couldn't picture this Punch Lonsdale, Asian Pacific RE Got two boxes, it’s just more for me FOH bill about two G's flat No need to worry, my accountant don't know that And my whole crew is loungin' Celebratin' every day, no more celly housin’ Thinkin' back on my one-box shack Now my dad smokes Diplomat, number 2, from the stack And he loves to take me out on the course Early tee time, lightin’ up right before We used to fuss when CA’s No 1 missed us No stock, can’t get the Quattro, disgust List days was the worst days Now we smoke Gran Reserva on our birthdays Uh, damn right, I like the life I live 'Cause I went from Cuban seed to Cuban grown And it's all good And if you don't know, now you know cigars You know very well “You have yourself a box” Don't let embargoes drown Out good cigars You had a few But not that many But now you found the source To stock up good and plenty 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirVantes Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Drift Away It is light. Lighter than this air, This modern miasma It rises above. Through our barred windows, Past the windows of our shuttered bars, Beyond the throng of our emptied streets, Above the silence of the lambs And the baying of pigs. And I drift away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ode to a Dropped Cigar So now the hour does arrive A time smoke, to feel alive Thus on your body my eyes set Their greed belies imm’nent regret Your head I snip Move to my lip Lacking good grip I let you slip That hurdling horror ‘for my eyes Ensures an end filled with my cries What once was smooth is now full split My afternoon even more $h1t With only one way to recover Buck up my son, and grab another! -Birdman 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Hayes Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 No need for clocks, the cicadas know it's time A scotch, a gin, what a mood you're in Perhaps a rum and lime With palate wet and a day to forget your thoughts drift afar to hints of leather in balmy weather your friend, the Partagas cigar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djrey Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 My fine cigars, you inspire me to write. How I love the way you smolder and burn, invading my mind day and though the night, Always dreaming about the experience in yearn. Let me compare you to a contender? You are more vicious, delicious and soft. Light winds shake the leafage of September, And the smoke has begun to loft. Now I must away with an aloft heart, Remember my dull words whilst we're apart.

bmf30180 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Partagas, with your subtle spice, Better than those at twice the price. Other sell more, and cause undue mania, But I, for one, desire Lusitania. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavLew79 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 My cigars they hail from Havana, And smoke in a wonderful manner, Equipped with my lighter, life couldn't be brighter, By God, I swear it's like manna! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaxeiler Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 A time honored tradition from family to year, A close knit community we hold so dear, A glimpse of vacation, a mental respiration... ...Smell, cut, light, inhale, Ash, inhale, repeat... For nights when life has got you down, For trips when when stress can not be found, A wonderful celebration, idle hands in search of application... ...Smell, cut, light, inhale, Ash, inhale, repeat... Whether Monte, Party, or PLPC, Cohiba, Upmann, Romeo & Juliet with an ‘y’, Fresh and green with frustration, or beautiful aged temptation... ...Smell, cut, light, inhale, Ash, inhale, repeat... To our friends at the apt named FOH, Who support, cater, commiserate Without you we’re lost, cheers to Di, Moe, Ken, and the boss... We hope you get to... ...Smell, cut, light, inhale, Ash, inhale, repeat... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Connoisseur Kim Posted September 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2020 Dear Lovely La Gloria Cubana Medaille d'Or No. 4 My signifcant other; my love; my glittering moonlight. My everything; my dearest; my La Gloria Cubana, the queen of beauty. My life; my paradise that I live for; my Earl Grey flowing in heaven's river. My spring; my delight; my meaning of day; my beloved, the painting deeply carved in my heart; my smiling rose. My source of happiness; my sweetness in me; my jovial feast; my gleaming light; my eternal flame. My honey; my citrus; my orange; my glow in the bedchamber and night. My fruits; my gem; my treasure; my only safe haven in this world. My Saint Habanos; my reason for existence; lady of Cuba in my soul. My La Habana; My Partido; My vegueros and fincas of Pinar del Río. My La Casa del Habano and Habanos Specialist; my Cohiba Atmosphere and local cigar lounge. My heart-pounding lover with sheeny appearance; long and slender frame; elegant aroma. Thou wilt be the reason, even if I die; save me, O my gorgeous Slim Panetela.⠀ I keep praising thee and singing at thy door. I, passionate leman with fluterring mind and joyful tears from endearment, am happy. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheryl G. Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 There once was a cigar called Leafy. He was quite lean and smelled sweetly. When he was lit, I said oh shit! That was my last one and I'm bummed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeruby Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 “I’m SPARTACUS”.. A man must accept his fate, and he must never hesitate, There has alway been a choice, but I never ever, have them moist, 65 percent humidity, gives them real validity, Smell the aroma, clip the end, you will never be the same again, Light one up and you will see, the truth will always set you free.. “I’m PARTAGAS”.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
