Lucky Charm

12/12/16


Another day and night, involving the moon and sun

Crimes committed where the perpetrator(s) did or didn't use some gloves

In places where there is either room or none



I'd call it a gift and a curse

For what it's worth
It didn't work out at first
Until I had learnt


Elements like Wind, Fire, Water and Earth
94 of which occur on this planet and 118 in the universe

People ordering or at home cooking a surf and turf

Many homes with or without a christmas tree skirt

Many dinners followed up by some sort of dessert

Items lost and found above and underneath the dirt

Popular toys for kids like Nerf

Food and terrain intentionally or accidentally burnt

Situations that indicate a red alert

Meaning it just may get even worse

For any individuals regardless of if they're familiar with Captain Kirk



Like deltron said, " no need for alarm"

Objects small and large

In order for some to be functional, they need an electrical charge

Food being preserved and stored in jars

For when times get hard, so that they and the ones they love don't starve

With effort and practice difficult tasks no longer hard

Some wear what they consider a lucky charm

People showing continual disregard
Unraveling faster than a spool of yarn

Near and far from any barn
located on or off a farm

Locations off limits, locked and closed down with bars

In space there is a lot of stars

What exactly do they know about Mars?

And any other planet similar or different from ours?
