All I Want

All I really, really want...
is a platinum gold star
and a shiny race car
and a couple of bags full of cash
and a great big house where I can splash
in the pool with a swim up bar
with a couple of zillion friends who are
a life of laughs that never ends
and faith that's strong and never bends
and a man who can make me believe
in love and hope and sweet night dreams
and that's about it.

Buy a lotto ticket. It's that simple. Funny tongue in cheek poem.

so glad you found it funny...thanks for the comment! but lotto ticket is not that simple!... i have an uncle who won 28 million in the pennsylvania lottery... that was some 26 years ago and to date, no one else in the family has even come close to that... i gave up years ago. so you see... it's not that simple.
