Three Wishes

In my youth appeared a star
I wished that it would send a car
Then I thought to throw a penny
And hoped for riches full and plenty

Once I used a candle and cake
To stop and cure a heart ache
Still many a time at bedside
I looked for a shining light to guide

Today I’m older with no superstitions
And seek the ways of a good physician
One who is magical and will share
How he plans to bring back my hair
