I Wish

I wish for sunshine Instead of rain. I wish for something To relieve the pain. I wish for flowers That are in full bloom. Perhaps these could relieve My feelings of doom. I wish for a dew drop That daintily hangs. Something like this Would stop all my pangs. I wish for a cool breeze To refresh the day. Perhaps for my healing, This is part of the way. I wish for a palm tree To relax under. It's presence would be helpful To remove my wonder. I wish for a bluebird To sing me to sleep. Then at this time I wouldn't cry or weep. I wish for clouds That change their form. They're things I'd relate to. They'd make me feel warm. I wish for the most, This one thing I want so, Is the heavenly promise, A brightly colored rainbow.
