Genie! Genie!!
Three wishes? Only three wishes?
Should I be selfish? And spend it all on me?
That would not be possible because that certainly is not me…
My first wish is a cure for Aids,
Not just for the promiscuous,
But for those innocent babies being born,
Condemned already before breathing their first breath…
My second wish if granted
would have to be for peace,
cliché, you might think,
but hey? What is cliché compared to harmony
combined with laughter, a smile shared is a smile spread…
That takes us to my number three,
I would love to meet my Creator
and strive each day to do His will,
because in the end every breath I take,
every move I make is ultimately ordained…
So Genie! Genie please be so kind,
they may not be much but hey, they are worth a lot…
