Array ( [sid] => 107161 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Three Wishes. [time] => 2005-10-05 21:52:52 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I feel depressed, I'm bored with life.
I'm tired of just being a mother and wife.
I need some excitement, I need some real fun.
I need to get outside, to feel the warm sun.

I should pack up the family and get in the car.
Go for a drive, though we needn't go far.
A day in the country would be a good start.
To lifting this fog away from my heart.

We could meet up with friends and go to the zoo.
There's got to be dozens of things we could do.
That won't cost a fortune, that won't break the bank.
That won't leave me feeling so empty and lank.

The housework's a drag and I'm sick of the dish's.
I need a Genie to grant me three wishes.
I'd have to be careful and not waste a one.
Measure each wishes potential for fun.

The first wish would be to win millions in lotto.
Then I'd hire a nanny and go out and get blotto.
Wish one would solve so many problems for me.
Now what would I do for wish two and wish three?

I think for wish two I'd want optimal health.
So my family and I could enjoy our new wealth.
The last wish is special and hardest to make.
I have to make sure I don't make a mistake.

This last wish, I think, I shall spend on my kids.
My son and my daughter, my bonny tin lids.
May they have the wisdom to get them through life.
To keep them out of all trouble and strife.

But I don't have a Genie so I'll just have to pray.
That I will not always be feeling this way.
It's no bodies fault, there's no one to blame.
I'm just tired of every week being the same.

I think I'll start collecting lamps. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 284 [topic] => 25 [informant] => OzChick [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

Well you wasted two wishes, the last one was the only well thought of. May be you should have wished that first - to give us the wisdom to get through life and rest two wishes.
