Wednesday, Three and Green
The day of the week, the number and the colour
Do you ever feel you’ve had a past life
Because of things you know or feel,
You know it’s not from this lifetime
But you are certain it’s true and real.
***
I consistently seem to have issues
With Wednesday, the number three,
And the horrible colour green
Bad luck always follows, this I guarantee.
Not only do they bring bad luck
But they all relate to each other,
So Wednesday’s, especially the third
I race and duck for cover.
***
Something in a past life
Has happen on the third day,
A day that fell on Wednesday
And the colour green held sway.
What happened, you may ask
But I have not got a clue,
I’d change my luck, resolve things
If only I knew what to do.
***
I once loved a special guy,
He treated me like a queen,
He asked me to marry him
God no, I’d become Mrs Green.
Was this the universe being funny,
Having a laugh and playing games,
Why attract me to a special guy
Who is out bounds due to his name?
***
Will I ever know what ties together
Wednesday, Green and Three,
Not this lifetime but when they coexist
Trust me, you’ll find me absentee.

About the Creator
Colleen Millsteed
My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.

My fingers dance across the yellowed pages of the library’s archaic volumes. Despite the candle illuminating the shelves, I’m not searching for a book. Instead, I’m relentlessly investigating the halls for a door to run from the horrible reality that consumed all our lives.
