WANDERING WISHES:


All wishes wander, from minds & quiet tongues,

Winging their way to old moons & faraway suns,

Vowed onuses put upon candles of aged cake,

With eyes closed, our yearned wishes we make.

 

Tossed with gold coins, into old wishing wells,

Sent to stars falling & in chimes of church bells,

Wishes, put into bottles & flung far into oceans,

Carried in beaks of bluebirds, our secret emotions.

 

Wishes slide down rainbows, in all colours of hope,

Soaring within prayers, by-passing sin & all Popes,

Dreamt in deep slumber, of midnight soft dreams,

Wishing, merely the magic of all best laid schemes.
