Sometimes, when the lights are out, I sit in the dark and wait. Waiting for thoughts to fill my head, dreaming about what to do, with a million bucks. Being rich should give you some happiness they say. Money...will it help to get a better life? Sometimes I wonder, because happiness has to be within, within oneself. Happiness you must create, it's not given. But if you just sit and wait... a million bucks won't help I guess. So here I sit when the lights are out. Sometimes I'm happy, sometimes I wish I had a million bucks. Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

  (big hugggssssssss) Oh Titia, this is so very true, sweet friend, everything that is only temporary is not true happiness, happiness must be something ever so fluent that it consumes your heart forever and money is by far the opposite of that! (sigh) This is touching, sweet friend, I love it, you have my vote, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Titia, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton  "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." Shakira [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (03-17-2003 07:38 PM).] |

Titia, I like this. It makes you think. You're right, though....I don't think money can buy happiness, but it sure would make us feel better sometimes..LOL Heart Hugs, and my vote, Ethel |

Oh, Titia! I do the same thing! I love to sit on my bed in the dark and wait for new thoughts and ideas to float gently into my mind...and it would even be better if I had a million dollars stuffed under my mattress!  Delightful write from a delightful pen! Love & Light, Linda |

Titia, I enjoyed this one. The older I get the less I want a million bucks. The things I want don't cost that much anymore. Iced tea in the summer and someone to share it with, really. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

Titia darling one, what better way to ensure the book has some brilliant poems in than to vote for this superb poem. Do you know that this is such a pearl of wisdom, just the words to remind us of what is important and what isn’t I love it utterly utterly utterly, but of course YOU know that. One of your utterly utterly perfect timed poems And a resounding YES vote for the book As always Mushy   Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |

Krissy dear, if we could share our million pounds and bucks, I think we would stay in Florida forever, I happen to remember a certain person at the airport who's looks you must have imprinted well after driving along a hundred times Sunshine, if I'm in the book, I don't need a million bucks, I'll have a million friends around me. Marsha, glad to see you again dear, because you always make me blush. Alicethruglass, I would settle for that too. Nan, he he I would come to Cape Cod every half year to party with you dear. But alas, as I just found out, they passed my million bucks to someone else again. I only got 5, well that's better than nothing. Titia Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

Hi ya Titia. This poem reminds me of: Blessed are the poor, for they still have hope that money will make them happy. Nicely phrased poem, with a great ending that ties everything together. Another vote in the affirmative. |
