FOLLOW THAT DREAM ... Maureen Clifford © The #ScribblyBark Poet
I saw a star and followed it its sparkle drew me on. I wore a mask so none would see behind it - hope had gone. Love stole my heart I recollect I paid the tax and more to free myself from purgatory... I had been there before but thought this would be different. What a fool I was for sure; must have been drunk on Burgundy. No champagne - did I pour. The first time I was twenty we were both joined at the hip. The last time I was sixty and I thought 'twould be a snip to share life and love together an adventure it would be. I was wrong, and once more wear the mask. I'll share no more of me. Words used - star love stole tax recollect burgundy snip twenty mask sparkle ·······  ······· |
