More Fool Me! Poem by Valerie Reid

I Never Promised you Diamonds
Can only afford Cubic Zirconia
WHAT?
When Did I say a Mercedes?
Girl, I THINK you're concussed or delirious!

I Never promised you a rose garden
Or that house to go with it
Why do you fuss and struggle when I said I would check
Out that Honda?

Now I wonder....
Should I have told you
I had the winning ticket
I was only joking
I really didn't mean it

I wanted to see your reaction
To see if you want me for me....Silly Me!

I got my answer loudly and clearly
