Wish Upon A Star

Wisdom to see the difference 
Insight to know when to ask 
Selflessness to ask for all not one 
Hope that all comes to those who care 

Using the strength of your dreams
Pondering the power of a thought
Opening the doors to belief
Nurturing the love of your life

Always look to your heart

Stirring the joy of the time
Trusting the hope of us all
Answering the call from afar
Rejoicing in the result

I wish all your greatest wishes come true ...

Was browsing your profile by form and was very pleased to come across this right near the top. Such an uplifting acrostic I needed to read this morning. I'd like to interpret it as mantras one would say for encouragement, or something the reader could look at on their wall whenever they need a word of hope.

Thank you for your kind interpretation. It would be perfect words of encouragement when times are hard.

The acrostic form is incredibly tough to write a deep and meaningful poem in. You just made it seem effortless.

It is sometimes the only form I am happiest in. Thank you for your visit Alison
