Making wishes... | Wish quotes, Dandelion quotes, Wisdom quotes

I wish for days past and yearn for that kind of love... and the wind whispers I wish upon the stars at night and hunger to go back, back to when things were beautiful in my world. As a child I walked hand in hand with father into nature and he taught me all he knew. I miss that. Mother taught me all she knew about the flowers in her garden, now I have my own garden. I know she is up above tending Heavens gardens ! I thirst for days when life was easy when the decay of humanity was far away in my childish mind and I only cared about dolls and storybooks ... the wind takes my hand come it mumbles to my soul ... take an unknown path _________________________ April 4, 2021 Poetry/Modified Haibun/Wish Copyright Protected, ID 04-1343-878-04 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, All Yours (Apr 6) sponsor, Brian Strand, Judged 04/05/2021 First Place

_Constance, 'decay of humanity was far away in my childish mind and I only cared about dolls and storybook' A fine place to return, in the whisper of a wind. When wishes were made over a few candles blown out on a cake. They were all there looking on. -Richard
