The intollerable thought

Folder: 
tragedy

the penny dropped to the bottom of my heart;

I felt it.

it thumped and bounced and thumped again

it reached the impossible end.

it hasn't gotten any deeper.

I just hope it has landed on a ledge

waiting for you

to make the earth move.

I once threw a penny in a wishing well,

I wished for something (I'll never tell),

I once wished upon a shooting star,

I wished for a new car, but wound up at the bar,

Then I decided to cast me a spell,

The gin jumbled the words and down the steps I fell,

I figured that's three strikes. I'm out as can be,

But this one last wish I'm wishing,

The toilet were closer,

'Cause DAMN!! I have to pee!!

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

Very very true Respected SS.If it were not for the "pennies" of love in the hearts slot we could not move instead we'd sit & meditate in silence waiting for love to be dropped into the coin slot. Truly nice thought SS.
