Wishes

Wishes are butterflies

Fluttering about

On magical wings, darting in, shifting out

From flower to flower,

Bloom to bloom,

Chasing the daylight,

Banishing gloom.

 

Candles on birthday cakes

Mark the occasion, a

Noble tradition in

Life’s celebration.

Blow them all out and

Your wish will come true

As if it be a miracle

Out of the blue.

 

We all have wishes.

We all have dreams.

We all have plans, plots,

Projects and schemes.

But it takes dedication

And a staid attitude

To make, in the end,

All your wishes come true.
