I Wish

by Mike O'Brienc
(Christchurch New Zealand)

A man walks along the beach, he finds a lantern in the sand
What the heck is this? he thinks as he rubs it with his hand
Out pops a little Genie with some weeds and little fishes
I'm free at last the genie cried, now you have three wishes
The man replied look here mate I've got you out of a fix
Instead of the usual three wishes I demand you make it six
The Genie thinks this man is greedy,but he has me on remand
OK replies the Genie you six wishes are my command
(1) I wish to eat for ever more from a never ending plate
(2) I wish to be adored by woman,now would'nt that be great
(3) I wish to get up when I want and do whatever I please
(4) I wish to never work again and live a life of ease
(5) I wish to never have to pay for anything again
(6) I wish to be treated like a King and in my house I reign
These are the six wishes that I demand,now can you do all that
The Genie smiles and in a flash he changed the man into a CAT.

Hi Mary,
Thank you For your comment on my poems. You write that you are from NC, is that New York County?. I Did published a Book on Cat poems about 8 years ago but I made ONE big mistake. I self published and hadn't got a clue about distribution.
I have written hundreds of Cat and Dog poems over the years and I did one poem about The pound which tells us about how unkind some people are after they get a Dog. It is a poem told by the Dog.
I am willing to talk to you more about your propsal. If you would like to contact my by e mail
my address feel free to do so. michaelobrien1941@gmail.com.
Cheers Mike.
PS a small poem for you.
Animal rescue
-------------
What goes on at the animal rescue
Most of us would not have a clue
Dogs and Cats left for days on end
Waiting for their so called friend
Their so called friends have left them there
To fend for themselvse, they just don't care
Animal rescue come to these animals aid
They do it out of love,not for what their paid
I admire these people for what they have done
They are the best of the best and second to NONE.

They are cold and hungry but they don't care
