all right here goes
10 things I wish for before I die
these are not in any order but since I get them all
who cares

1. to hold a grandchild of mine. just so that I could look upon the joy that was created by the love of my life and I, and so that I could whisper in his/her ear to payback all the tribulations their parent caused me HA.

2. to lie in a field of poppies and not be afraid of bees

3. to gain financial independence so that I could set up all of those I hold dear in businesses of their own.

4. to lie in a hammock on a deserted island waiting on the supply plane that would only bring me books and books and books and wonderful food stuff

5. to never again bear witness to the ignorance of war

6. for someone to take all of my scribblings and bind them

7. for the poetry section in all book stores to be at the front door and it to be so crowded that you couldn’t even get in POETRY ROCKS

8. for my children and my husband to understand that I gave all that I was able and to be sure of my steadfast love unto eternity

9. to ride a horse with wild abandon

10. to bring all of my loved ones, every single person that has ever lifted me up in encouragement together for one huge party, so that I could tell them exactly how important they are to me and that I would have been nothing without them.
and you dear friends of AD are all invited………….

so that aint asking for much
Thanks Peggy for the inspiration.
