(Holi)Day Dreaming

"I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me?
Or am I even in it's mind at all?
Perhaps I'll get a chance to look ahead and see
Soon as I get myself a crystal ball"
Styx 'Crystal Ball' lyrics.

After crossing her palm with silver,Gypsy Rose Lainey gazed into her crystal ball.
"The picture isn't quite clear yet----- it's a little distant and eh---- hazy.Wait! I see a ----- a giant bird------ carrying you afar.
I am seeing a family reunion in a place which is ----- big------ and easy----yes, easy, easy going. ------- I am hearing music in the air, -------wonderful music everywhere!! This place is alive, full of life and colour and laughter.
The picture is disappearing--------ah, but now I am seeing a huge giant of the sea------ sitting upon----sitting upon an old man.----Wait! Someone is calling to you-------it's a young girl ,with a pretty smile on her face------she is beckoning to you----telling you to follow her.
But wait --------the picture grows even clearer ----- now I am seeing an idyllic tropical island----- ahhhhhh,a distant place with lush, green, fragrant landscape, gently swaying palm trees,warm golden sun shining in a cloudless, azure blue sky,------warming your skin------- a silky, white- sand beach, with calm, sparkling ,aqua marine waters.
Ahhhhh, the picture is fading a little ---- I, I see ---------------------oh please stay,-------------no,------it's------ it's GONE! "
Gypsy Rose Lainey rose from her chair and slowly walked from the room.The day dream was over.
*This crystal ball actually belonged to and was used by (on a few rare occasions) my gran.She was adept at card readings but rarely used the crystal.
