Analysis of Fabulation
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Fabulation to obtain,
Is an incredible feeling to achieve.
Regardless,
Of how the meaning is defined.
And by who or whomever,
Seeking to place a label on it.
With a hope this describes,
In a word that identifies...
What is felt to quickly address it!
'Fabulation?
Is not a word I have heard before.'
I am not surprised at all.
If you have not yet felt 'fabulous'.
Or mornings to awaken,
Without aches or pains...
Unwanted or welcome them.
Or volunteer to accept,
The stress of life lived to expect.
And not a muscle in your body,
Depends on applying medication?
Leaving you to notice,
You feel guilty not to have...
No complaints.
No lies to tell to yourself.
And everywhere you go,
The air seems to be scented...
With mint and roses to smell?
Fabulation has arrived!
'Okay!
Now tell me this.
How long does this feeling you have,
Lasts?'
I can not tell you that.
However...
I can tell you this.
I hope it will last,
Longer than my explanation of it.
And God allows me,
To keep my mouth shut.
Without it to announce,
How I feel.
Knowing...
A selling of a blessing to receive,
To you or anyone else...
Is mine to keep.
And not an intention,
To brag or create envy!
'God giveth and taketh awayeth!'
I know.
God works in mysterious ways.
To test us all!
'Ssshhh.
Keep your voice down.
GOD?
I AM HERE.
YOUR FAITHFUL SERVANT.
PLEASE...
SEE ME READY AND PREPARED,
FIT!
FOR A BESTOWING...
OF YOUR 'FABULATION'!
LOL...
You're too funny!
