What If

~~~~ What if .... ~~~

What if I won the lottery?
What if I was rich?
Would I still be sweet little me
or would I be a ... witch?

I buy my tickets faithfully
each and every week,
hoping to be a millionaire.
The title of which I seek.

What if I won the lottery?
How would I spend the money?
I'd probably just drop dead from shock.
.... Now wouldn't that be funny?






for Desiree Birdseye's 'What if ? ' contest

LOL I'd have a heart attack if I won the lottery, especially since I don't buy tickets. I doubt wealth would change your character, dear. "Millions" of wishes for success in Desiree's contest. Feeling a bit better today and am trying to catch up on some comments. Love, Carolyn

A witch you sure wouldn't be Francine. If, wow - it sure does make one think. I would pay for a Poetry Soup Convention if I won the Lottery in the UK. Good luck in Desiree's contest :)
