Notes About The Poem

Three Magic Rocks

I hold three magic rocks in my hand Rolling them over and over and over Leaving this reality behind, far behind
Each of my rocks is a wish to be told The first.. not for riches or wealth But a full golden measure of happy good health And the first of my rocks has been rolled With my second rock I would visit my past Meet up with old friends ,my parents and kin My rock I would roll and come back again For I know that the past was not meant to last Now one rock remains, just one in my hands So I’m rolling this last as it surely should be For our precious world, it’s people live free And peace on this earth throughout all its lands

Thanks, Andrea. I think the contest may have been looking for more magical write, but that’s all I could come up with at the time. Take care .
