Before I Kick the Bucket -Edited
I never really made a bucket list,
but I guess I kind of did it when I had
one thing I wished for – which was to be kissed.
That one got kicked off by a gorgeous lad!
I also wished the world I’d get to see,
for I was more adventurous when young.
Beloved Spain I wished especially
to visit, practicing its native tongue.
To kick it off my list I got to do!
And as a bonus, I saw many more
great countries; then I married. That one too
got kicked off with two kids for me in store!
Before I kick that bucket and am dead,
I wish to die (with no pain) and in my bed!
