The Genie’s out his bottle

daily prompt, Poetry 1 Minute

 

The Genie’s out his bottle

And no-one can’t get him back in.

I heard you made your wishes

But they didn’t work out as planned.

 

Were you careful what you wished for?

Did you think the matter through?

Its awful making wrong choices

They backfire and can bite you.

 

Who pulled the cork out the bottle?

Who let the genie out?

You rubbed the wrong lamp

Let the wrong genie out

There’s no-one to blame but you.

I am a regular contributor to Wattpad where I write as andrewagreen. My first two collections on Wattpad were featured. My first published book Margaret’s Story - a biography of my mother in verse is available on Amazon. I live near Windsor, Berkshire and have offered my services, so far unsuccessfully, as the next Poet Laureate.
