Fortune Teller By Paul Wilson Fortune’s told the sign said gypsy lady sees all She knows what lies ahead look in her crystal ball I stopped and went inside not knowing what I’d find My fear I tried to hide as visions filled my mind A voice said come… sit down how may I help you dear Nervously I looked around trying to hide my fear I want my fortune read please tell me what’s in store I keep dreaming I’m dead these signs I can’t ignore Relax and close your eyes feel your pain slip away It’s now time too arise your new life starts today I look around and see I’m in a different place Gypsy lady next too me now dressed in white lace I ask her where are we she softly takes my hand From your dreams you are free you’re in God’s holy land I was the Angel sent too take away your pain No reason to lament forever here you’ll remain ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |

Marge... I think I'll leave my future up in the air. My curiosity will just have too be satisfied without knowing. If it was meant for me too know then it will all be revealed to me another way.

Martie...Thanks for caring. I learned growing up in hurricane country when too leave and when too stay and there was no way I was hanging around for Katrina. I'm just glad my 3 children got out, they all live South of New Orleans. My daughter was wanting too stay but she did the right thing and left. Two of them lost their homes and the other one had minor damage. Glad too hear from you and thanks for reading and your caring reply...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |

Paul, I enjoyed reading your poem and the way that you turned it around there at the end. I'm so glad to hear that you are okay. Yep, there's another of those boogers going to be out stirring up our Gulf, ian't it? My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who might be affected. Heart Hugs to you and yours, Ethel |

Ethel...Thanks for taking time too read and reply. It looks like Rita might not bother us here in South Louisiana, but then I pray that she doesn't bother anyone. Take Care and be safe...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

I'm finding that it's a blessing to page back in the forums, not always look at the few at the top..... .....but that's where this beauty's going, right now! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
