Wish List

Wish List

I wish life could be

like those movies with 

happy endings when

everyone kisses

I wish that movie

with many twists, spins 

turns out some sharp guy 

finds that pretty gal

I wish I could be

that pretty gal with

gleaming teeth and

long eye lashes

I wish there could be

exquisite dresses 

muffs & puffs

all pink iridescent

I wish there were

this big fancy house

full of wardrobes

puppies, canaries

I wish yellow canaries

would sing and dance

whirling my name in script

across an endless blue sky
