Synchronicity: The Story of Wishes on a Clock

Let me tell you a secret,

In case you didn’t know:

Every time the clock

Has numbers that show

All the same at once,

Like three thirty-three,

You get to make a wish,

And your wish is free.

The same is true with

Two twenty-two,

And four forty-four.

So, wish out of the blue.

By five fifty-five

Or ten minutes past ten

You have more chances

To make a wish again.

By eleven-eleven or

Twelve minutes past twelve,

You can pull out the wishes

That you put on the shelve.

Keep your eye on the clock

And wish throughout the day!

By the time you go to sleep,

You wished the bad away,

And all things are good,

As good as can be.

Wishes are child’s play,

And wishes are key.
