A Change Of Mind

FOR THREE WORD WEDNESDAY

(We are asked asked to use the three words in blue)

A CHANGE OF MIND!

Do not implicate me in your dubious cause!

You'll be going down for a stretch and a very good thing, because.......... 

I just drove the getaway car. I had no idea at the time

That you were going to involve me in a thoroughly nasty crime!

I'm completely innocent; the police will understand

That I am not a person to do anything underhand!

I'll visit you in the prison; I may even bring you grapes.

But don't ask me to help you in planning any escapes!

Oh dear! Here's the Police Car! They'll be hammering at the door.

I'll just take off these diamonds!

What did you steal them for!

The eclipse as seen from Queensland.

MIRACLE COINCIDENCE

To some, a miracle involves a deity.

To others, and I am one of them,

A miracle is just that..........

Miraculous.

Australia has just witnessed a miracle

In the form of a total eclipse

Of the sun.

The two discs,

One so bright,

One so dark,

Fitted precisely.

This only happened because 

The sun is as far from the moon 

To the same degree 

As the sun is as large as the moon.

There is no reason why

The passing moon

Should not have been a mere dot

Travelling across the face of the sun.

There is no reason why 

The sun should not have been obliterated for hours

By a seemingly enormous moon.

But no!

They fitted, perfectly,

Like two pieces 

Of a neat puzzle.

I just love miracles!
