Teddy.15


If I was to send
my IBAN 
into the world 
In the shape of a poem
I wonder...
would I wake up tomorrow morning
to find my bank account 
filled with world's money?
 
even if it was
I doubt I'd ever change
but, after all
I am a woman
so I may well splash out...
 
on a new shade of lipstick.

    Good one Teddy we all think what we would do with a little extra and then I watch people and what they spend on when they get some extra cash and I say to myself now I know why the rich are rich and the poor are poor. A most fun read my friend

      I truly mean this with all my heart I wouldn't want it, I find the wealth of so many I know is materiality but its what we do to keep the glass half full and what one appreciates about the obstacles and the general life standards we all have. Thank you, but you didn't answer my question? I think you would buy a new pair of cosy flip flops? Am i right?

        I would pay my back taxes. And you are most welcome my friend

            Teddy, beautifully done…an IBAN, the world’s money, and in the end just a lipstick splurge. Playful, ironic, and wonderfully human. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛ And heck, why not try on a new shade of lipstick! I'm down! 🤣 My daughters used to put it on me all the time! LOL!

                Fine words Teddy, the way we look at life is that we have enough to enjoy what we want to do but once I win the millions in the lottery I will build my jazz club.
