I Wish
I wish that rainbows…
Could be touched
That fog and mist
Would feel like velvet
Inhale their essence
Tho’ ne’er too much
Yet know and sense
Their very presence…
These gossamer things
Of substance sheer
Like fairy wings
That hover near
I wish…I wish…
With all my heart
That Trolls and elves
Live… and take part
In some wondrous place
Somewhere…
I wish imagination
Could become reality
And cold reality would cease
to exist…everywhere
I wish all things
Of legend and lore
All things mysterious,
Magical and more
Could exist and persist
Just outside my door
Oh I wish…I wish
…I wish…
