I Shall Not Get Drunk Today

[Brownlie]

Well maybe anapest with two feet of iambs. That would fit the first line.

i shall NOT get DRUNK toDAY. Can you change the first stanza into that or something else?

Perhaps this would work, but I'm not so sure. It was a good exercise anyway.

I shall not take a drink I shall not take a day
And imbibe with a sipping the sunlight away

I shall not take a drink and get drunk on this day
