What Do You Want

What do you want?
Is it articulate in your mind?
Will your wish be quelled at the point of grant?
And will you be sure of your find
And endeavor to find it pleasant
And not look behind

What is your wish?
Is it unique or common?
Will you be sure to relish
With your treasuring and opinion
That to your heirs you will relinquish
Your dear gains, their meanings and your passion

What is the need
That wishes and wants be of essence
Other than to commonly breed
Variants, varieties and their command of presence
Meaningful words and honorable deeds
Worth preservation and reminiscence
