Careful Wish….…..

Do you ever get a feeling,

of something not quite right?

That an adventure’s going to happen

and that maybe tonight’s the night.

As the feeling grows inside you

almost too much to bear

you shy at your own long shadow,

but suddenly it’s not there….

You feel magic all about you,

touching the hairs on your skin,

what fate has in store for you

would it simply just begin.

The air crackles with foreboding

as forked lightning strikes outside,

you hear thunder in the heavens

but there’s nowhere near to hide,

You stare at the copper lantern

you polished a minute ago,

as you rubbed three times, you wished a wish

Can you remember it?  I Do Hope So!!
