My Wish For Mom

With Dad now gone
If I could I wish…
I would give you a world cruise

I wish I could…
Buy you a ticket for
An endless trip around the world
Think of all the people you would meet
And the places you would see

I wish I could…
Help you check off all the items
On your bucket list
So you could reach the finish line
And say with assurance I did it all
I did it all and then some

I wish I could…
Make sure you never feel alone
As the years pass by
Dad being with you and
Always watchful from above
If I could I wish…
