I Wish

I wish I were a favorite poem,
with world waking verse.
One easily remembered 
and often rehearsed.

I wish I were love. 
All kinds of love,
specially the kind 
from heaven above.

I wish I were
the perfect Kiss,
that moment of supreme bliss 
the kind you look forward to 
and the kind that you miss.
 
I wish I were 
that peace of mind
a feeling of serenity 
when everything's fine.

I wish I were the reason
Women smile in the morning
Day dream in all afternoon
and felt warm at night.

I wish this were 
one of those moments
…
When I didn't have to wish.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your wisdom through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
