       But she could cook, she could sew, she could stitch

       So, she snagged a wealthy man

Premium MemberWished He Had Tried Harder with Wife Number One

John did not try hard with his first wife
she was married, he was not
second wife cheated on him
served him right, he deserved that.

third wife was an accident.
They had gotten drunk in Vegas
Too many chapels there
and too many drinks

Fourth wife thought saying “I am his fourth” was funny
Her disposition was dour, she stopped being sunny.
He got

The Moment I Wished the Time to Stop

Once upon a time,
In a not so far away land,
There were you and me,
At the edge of the deep blue sea.
 
It was a bright sunny day,
And you were ten feet away,
But the next time I found you,
Was right here next to me.

Splashing water, a playful fight,
You tried to stop me, held my hand tight.
In

Premium MemberI would have wished your departure to be a labyrinth with no exit

I would have wished your departure to be a labyrinth with no exit,
To feel how each step of yours futilely fights against the longing that does not yield.
Every sleepless night, until the morning embraced us with its warm rays,
I knew, you were there, a participant in our ephemeral paradise.
Ah, if only you had left a

Premium MemberHow I wished I had been granted to know

How I wished I had been granted to know,
The depth of the unused words, the hallucination of a happiness with purpose.
My labor, how much has dissipated into the void, in the vast unknown,
All the zeal, all the toil – a deaf echo, a terrified phantom, and a fasted feast.
The pains take shape in a carnival

Premium MemberWished

Ted is a novice when skating on ice
Kept slipping and falling twenty times twice
Body shattered and battered
And his teeth were all scattered	
Prayed the tooth fairy will give a good price

Soups and soft food is all he can now eat
But he fancied something that is more sweet
Poured treacle in a large cup
Then quickly drank it all

Premium MemberWished He Had Made His Move Sooner

her eyes were leery, Buck thought it was directed at him
not realizing she did not see him yet
she turned her head and he saw her burgundy hair
like his mother’s, he was fascinated by that

he made a move toward her, but someone beat him to her
it was his cousin, Jake, of course, it would have been

Nuclear War Wished For

A nuclear war wished for

There is among the youth of the West an ingrained boredom
a hidden wish to swipe away from the old world they live in 
they can’t see for mist on windows and need to clear the view
the dream of an exploding world where they will be survivors.
If a few survive. they will

I Wished Upon a Star

On a dreary night not so long ago i wished upon a star,
And that single wish traveled somewhere incredibly far.
Past meadows and hills and things ordinary and things bazarre. 
In a single restless night my wish became the very thing I thought they are.

I waited days upon days and weeks upon weeks, it wasn't coming

Stringent and Weirded

What distract me from my oblagations are
not of trust but of worldly want and desire.
Than what is spoken as Godlydistracts those
of there obligation and duty to God.
My love of my wife has been
made sacred by marriage, and those who wish
to distract me from such obligastion
are forieng and strange
and are then wicked and vain!
This spoke Saffra

A Wished Contact With Kids

I don’t care on which street
But I should like to meet
Kids like a new pin neat,
By sweat untouched in heat,
No causeless itching
To storm a kitchen
And there wolfishly eat
What isn’t really sweet
Only in rumors a nice treat 
And started by a chef who also finished it:
Kids in the coziness of cushion seats
Avoiding their irksome sheep’s bleat.
