Bucket Wish List

Folder: 
All and nothing



You need to 

get yourself a bucket,

or so I'm told,

Fill it, Fill it, till it overflows.

 

A wish list.

Of all to see

and all to do

before my lust is lost

for this husk of dust,

 

ONLY...

 

I've climbed many mountains,

and sat under a few fig trees,

The sky was coolsome blue,

the grass as lush as ever...

 

So my bucket hangs empty,

my head instead

carrying a memory,

that can't be bought,

or chased, or caught,

 

A dying gasp won't be wasted

on all to see

and all to do,

what is past is passed.

 

So here's to a bucket wish list

just take my bucket

and f**k it far from me.

My Bucket List

Fell out of the bucket and when i picked it up I discovered it written in ancient Aramaic, so I decided to play by ear. Interesting write - the possibiilities. Is that a thing, sitting under fig trees?:D
