Wow ! A dream come true!! What could be better?

A ready to occupy country house first on the letter.

 

With  a library, an all night cafe and a home theater

The best of staff, the best of linen all causing a flutter!

 

From this lovely home, in a long sleek swanky shiny car

I would weave my way to the latest designer store  afar!

 

Rubies, pearls  n the long-awaited sparkling diamond necklace,

All in due time would in my treasure trove find a pride of place!

 

Shopping done, swathed in the best designer gown

To my waiting yacht I would take the road downtown.

 

And undergo in its spa a luxurious make-over,

As  I allow the magicians there  to take me over .

 

To look and feel like a million plus  bucks,

My next stop – a few ‘instant’ tummy tucks.

 

The day culminating in an evening feeling divine

Amidst roses music, dim lights and exquisite cuisine.

 

As I magically find I have  nimble feet

I and my love would dance to every beat.

 

Money cannot buy happiness they say?

They knew not where to shop and stay!

 

A spendthrift I am self confessed and accused

No better way  to spend a day than discussed!

 

So bring it on, please bring it on

Let the music play on and on!

 

Retail therapy brings such untold joy

Would love to do this again and enjoy

 

Thank you WordPress for this lovely fluffy dream

May you bring more and more I daresay and scream!

 

Good night…..

all good things

 I should have spoken of abstract options and emotions and all things nice … but today this is me ….. dreaming of material things and unapologetic about it!  Ha ha!

    On same wave lengths ? Yes, those who said money can’t buy happiness didn’t know where to shop. What a dream and there’s nothing wrong in material pleasures. What’s say ?

    May your dream come true …. sometime. You truly deserve all that you yearn for.
    Wonderfully worded & rhymed. Loved the piece.
