Three Wishes
What good is wisdom without wealth,
And you can't grant me a good health,
Of what good is any talent or kindness
to showcase them sans some richness?
Agreed, you can grant me three wishes
but you wouldn't know what one misses,
Oh pray, I don't want to sound malicious,
You know not how someone is ambitious.
May heaven augment manyfold your blisses
Kevin, if you grant this humble poet's wishes,
A three-in-one wish that I dare you not in jest...
Place me on top of everyone in this contest!
