WISH COLLECTOR

To the collector of wishes
I wish you well
Perhaps you’ve lost mine
within your pail

To the collector of wishes
Please recheck
Perhaps its still there
Within its depths

To the collector of wishes
My hopes are slim
Perhaps some new stars
Are much too dim

To the collector of wishes
I’ll wish anew
Perhaps maybe this time
It won’t go askew

To the collector of wishes
I wish you well
Perhaps this new wish
Will find your pail
