IT'S   NOT   THE   WINNING



My morning began quite brilliantly
As I logged on early as dew
An exquisite surprise was awaiting
Dare I take a sneaky view

An important email had been written
My address, my name, that's me
How can I press the button
Excitement was making me carefree

YOU  HAVE  WON….the message was written
Lottery's riches waiting at my door
I was flabbergasted and prostrate
As I picked myself up from the floor

Come on : remember your password
As I raced to get into the site
How many millions were to drown me
My senses had taken dramatic flight

A castle I planned to buy, on an island
A warm swimming pool the length of a runway
No more cooking, no cleaning, no nothing
Simply every day would now be a fun day

I quivered as I read the memo
Informing me of my life-changing win
A full six pounds and fifty pence, oh dear,  (13 dollars'ish)
Where do I begin??
