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
