I Could Be a Writer Too
I have the best ideas
I could make a million dollars if I wrote them down
My book would be a best seller for sure!
Great, I told him. What are your ideas?
They are not ready yet, he informed me.
Besides, I am saving them for myself.
Sounds great. Do you write now?
No.
Why not?
No time.
Now that you are retired,
Are you going to write those stories?
Not yet. I am still in the thinking stage.
Now that you are in the nursing home,
Here is a journal, so you can begin writing.
Who said I was going to write?
You did.
Write what?
Your great stories.
What stories?
