April -- NaPoWriMo 2023 Day 30 -- Mad Money -- and a Poem for Sunday Muse
     Wasted time and money
    Mama had warned her 
    "Spend your mad money
    very cautiously" 
    She didn't heed her  
    Now she wished she would 
    Save it for the time 
    Time you really need 
    Mad because your date 
    Didn't play fairly
    You imagine when 
    Times I've warned come true 
    Naughty naughty he 
    Sorry this came true 
    Walk home now you must

Pretty thankful I never had to make the trek home ~ alone. Ugh. Happy Sunday to you and Mrs. Jim.
They will never listen I suppose that's life - I probably didn't heed my parent's advice either! ❤️
I guess one needs to stash some of that mad money ..`Truedessa
Learning the hard way!
Always wise to save for a rainy day. Wishing you a wonderful week my friend!
