Treat With Laughter

Head bald, saffron robe, leaves of old scripture 
Visited disciples friend, introduced as Face Reader
Friend curious to know future
Revealed past, (disciple had briefed earlier)  
Future prediction goofed, prank exposed, had Treat with laughter

Those who try to predict the future often have "disciples" who provide a little background so they sound like they "know something." This happened to me once and the disciple interviewed me before the fortuneteller gave his spin. Very clever entry for John's contest, Hitendra. I think he'll enjoy this one a lot! Wishing you success. Now how about entering my election humor contest? Need three more entries and would love to have your poetry in the mix. Love, Carolyn
