They cleaned the fountain, Taking the pennies and dimes, Letting out water It stood there empty and dry, All the wishes now removed. Gloom |

My granddaughter would go , as she goes to make sure her wishes are still there and adds more! I wish on stars it is safer! ~* Without deep reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people ." *~ |

nice piece Gloom... tight and open ended enough in metaphor for the reader to draw as they would from it... Very enjoyable read.. |

Professor The movie, Three Coins in a Fountain...I loved as a youth..but, sad to say, I see now that romance is more like your fountain most of the time. Enjoyed this! |

Oh my gosh do I like this!! Into my library this short, fantastic one goes. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Gloom "They cleaned the fountain, Taking the pennies and dimes, Letting out water It stood there empty and dry, All the wishes now removed." May I add: They took the coins, Put in fresh clear water To once more call the wishers And spent the coins on needy people. And made their wishes come true.

Gloom - The taking or quelling of someones wishes, their hopes, is captured very well with this write. Well done. Dave |
