Competition Entry: Dream On

If I should win the lottery, it would be a dream come true.
Imagine all those millions, I know exactly what I’ll do?

Posing with a giant cheque, you’d see me on the news.
I’d hold a champagne reception, before going on a cruise.

I’d buy a house that’s big enough for my partner, kids and me.
A bedroom with a balcony, that overlooks the sea.

Electric gates and gravel drive, to show that I’m not poor.
My brand-new red Mercedes, would be parked outside the door.

My life would change completely, if I think it through a while.
Being rich and famous, is really not my style.

I’d have to take precautions, there’d be no peace for me.
Erecting eight-foot fences, along with CCTV.

My life would never be the same, different problem every day.
My family would ignore me, my friends would stay away.

Not convinced I’ll take that chance, not certain I should risk it.
I’m happy with my current life, don’t think I’ll buy a ticket.
