Three Wishes
I snap a wishbone in half
as I say a silent prayer...
for a cure for all incurable diseases,
for the eradication of the Covid-19 pandemic
~
I blow dandelion seeds
to the murmuring breeze...
in hopes that ongoing wars will so end
so peace reigns all over the earth
~
I blow out my birthday cake candles
wishing for the devastating epidemic
of poverty and homelessness
to cease in America.
