Playground in my palm

My father’s palm had many lines,

where it said he’d have many kids.

My palm shows that I would have three,

I would have more if I could.

My palm also says I’d be born a leader or a king,

my father said, in life son, you can be anything.

This playground in my palm said I’d be married,

it ended three quarters the way across my hand

Instead of looking at my lifeline,

I’d rather go into a playground and count the sand.
