Wish
Each Snowflake that falls
is a wish to come true
A wish that turns into a thousand
A simple wish that was granted by God
to a simple child who needed to be a child again
Who needed to play
Who needed a more powerful wish
A child that couldn't go out and play
A child that could only watch
the other children play
and wish
h on every snowflake as he watched
them fall slowly to the ground
Wishing that he would be here
to see the next snowflake
or the next snow day
or watch the snow fall to the ground again
And his biggest wish
To go and play in the freshly fallen,
soft silky snow
