- Poet Gamblers Paradise -

Dared to dive in beyond rationality, perceived normalcy
after realization in wake, I won the prestigious lottery
off six numbers that came to me in a lucid Dream~
told of Poet Gamblers Paradise, chosen one of twenty.

What would one do if winnings surpassed earnings
and every relative from all four corners called yearning
for a piece of pie, with whipped topping plus cherry~
would millions alter me, affect personality by turning?

I vowed if blessed to win anything of monetary value
to remember path walked, let the Light shine through
so others can be Touched, feel the blessings given...
never forget struggles endured, stop, breathe, thank you.

Share the wealth, Wisdom and words delivered on plate
with chalice raised high to heavens, moment to celebrate
an opportunity to help another, act of kindness from Heart,
see smiles surface on many faces that frowned as of late.

Home- where Heart beats, my parents surprised with Gift
of anniversary vacation to rest with sanity, safely also swift.
They mentioned once about Time to take in a casino hotel,
enjoy machines downstairs, money to spend and not cause rift.

Simplicity they mentioned at moment to relax, enjoy scene
as drinks are free plus freedom allowed to spend on machine.
Nothing fancy, extravagant or over the top, makes them Happy~
appreciate what one's got, remember, recall in past, no five star cuisine.

Others may shake their heads, speak what shameful act to see
but they don't know struggles endured, strength within my family
for perception of winning not always associates material wealth,
taught at younger age to share from Spirit, sincerely with Gratuity.

Imagine benefits that can come from extra savings shared,
imagine one accomplishment accounted for because one dared
to step out of the box, bring forth feeling that differences can be made
by helping another in need, nurture nature, standup, not be scared.

I'm not one to flash green, snap fingers, expect everyone to cater~
before winnings, my world rotated where I walked alongside Creator.
Still has not changed, nor views on visions to become the change,
I'd hope to see on Earth, Empathy with Love help Peace become greater.

Donate Time not only money to witness-feel dent within Conservation,
make a difference by providing safe refuge, secured for preservation
of endangered species, defenseless from predators, poachers~
Man held liable for destruction, rebuild reserve, many hands-Hearts dedication.

Money if spent wisely can continue to grow, ground planted with tree
as monument of success, saved someone in need or creature to live free
without worry of being sold, slaughtered for parts on black market-human greed.
Starts with one, from all walks of Life who wear wings, protects the community.
