A Glass Half Full

I did in fact shoot this with a glass half full of a nice rose`, however, as often works out in these matters, the test shot was better, more full of "Zen-ness," than the more formal kind of product placement shot.

Just sayin`

Initially, this was going to be a play on the Rolling Stone's Famous Lyric....a pill and a half a glass of wine...Titled Mother's Little Helper....but this, this entered version, is much more Zen, the ambiguity, and yet...truly, a glass half full. (not full you understand, half full, with all that that means)

"Mother's Little Helper"

What a drag it is getting old

Things just aren't the same today
I hear every mother say
They just don't appreciate that you get tired

They're so hard to satisfy
You can tranquilize your mind
So go running for the shelter
Of her Mother's Little Helper

What is the pill that is falling from the zen heavens above
