[hometext] => A last-ditch effort to have dreams fulfilled by visiting a wishing well
[bodytext] => I visited the wishing well with pockets full of fare; the day had come for dreams fulfilled and time to pay my share. Those wrong ways down a one-way street demanded something new, so changes were in order now and I was overdue. I cast a penny in the well for everything I'd learned. I hoped for every cent I tossed, more common sense returned! Then nickels flew at every plea to heal my nagging pain, by severing the memories that caused my heart to wane. As wishes weighed more heavily, I raised it to a dime. The well soon caught my pocketfuls, one longing at a time! I may not be the riches man, but I am still the wiser, as all those coins were only slugs because I'm still a miser!
