I Wish, Imagine, What If

I wish I were a rose My petals I easily dispose The ones that no longer brings Loving fancy to all my whims And keep the parts I love and adore Asking of life for nothing more Stretch myself toward the light Feeling gay and beautifully bright And underneath the radiant sun I glow a brilliance of dazzling haze Living life in a wonderful way Embracing and chasing incredible days. Imagine if I were to become a tree Experiencing life how I want it to be Steady with my earthly family A gentle sway on a windy day Never being led astray Always rooted in the ground Where I can be relied on to be found Powerfully being in my life Everything always going alright Love and energy from the sunlight Living a grand life dignified All the days and all the nights. What if I were a bird Above the Earth I play and pert Flying freely from my perch And when I am in flight Never losing sight of where it is I land Life is lived so very unplanned Unrestrained always in a joyful way Excitedly living come what may Singing gaily with all my friends So honest and true with no pretend Rain or hail I remain strong To mother nature I belong I flitter about always in song Carefree happily I wonder along.
