What I Wish For You My Friend

I wish you had the ocean, To match your eyes of blue I wish you could command the fish To do their best and live their truth. I wish you the best dreams The ones from which we never want to wake up I wish you had an inkling of the wonderfulness Others admire and respect in you I wish you to always stay innocent and fun, But I also wish you understood the reason people Adore you is not what you have done for them, But what you are constantly doing. I wish you knew the you That we know. I wish I could show you your reflection In a star

Thank you Jan. Blue eyes was just a term. It could be hazel or green or brown or black or amber eyes too.
