Wishes

When I wish upon a star
Silently, wisely smiling down
Whose power is of wide renown
I feel love, though from afar.

Wishing on dandelions
Blowing hard on the fluffy seeds
Certain they are magic, not weeds
No care of my environs.

I wish on candles each year
Whilst all friends cheer me on loudly
My big dreams kept secret proudly
Waiting for hope to appear.

I wish for more fairyland
Where the night air subtly glistens,
And even the wildlife listens,
Life unites a merry band!

Cindi, your poem "WISHES" is a beautiful and whimsical exploration of the power of wishes and the importance of dreaming big. Your words are both poetic and imaginative, and they transport us to a world of magic and possibility. I especially love the line "I wish for more fairyland / Where the night air subtly glistens, / And even the wildlife listens, / Life unites a merry band!" It's a reminder that anything is possible if we just believe. - Blessings, Daniel
