I Wish

Listen to poem:
I Wish David J Walker I wish I wish I wish The fish Besides the flying fish Could fly As high as any Bird you ever heard Of flying I am trying to wish the crying kid Could fly or swim An afternoon whim Of swimming And try to fly Flying high And swimming fast Past a full moon And cast a June moon shadow At night How would I know if “Things are different” And this is what I wished for In a past life How would I know if This isn’t a second chance In a redo-second life How would I know that The gods are annoyed with me Because I was right I wish I may I wish I might I wish I could start over I wish I had more time Flight is good as any wish Bait the hook catch the fish
