Appreciation

Of all things
he drank Pabst Blue Ribbon—

       from a can!

but it looked like he was drinking champagne

       the deliberate hoist
       the slight pause – a toast of thanks?
       the slow, methodical sip
       the part-smile

Oh, and the return

like a mother returning newborn to crib
