Wishes
All my wishes I give to the sea.
in a blue bottle for him and for me.
They'll glide slowly on the waves
on a bright moonlit night
to a distant land far out of sight.
They'll ebb and flow with the tide
until they rest upon a sandy beach.
A lonely wader will come by
and find the blue bottle
at his bare feet.
Or he'll be sitting in a yellow chair
and see it shining through the salty air.
He'll read my wishes from the sea
and put his own in the bottle
that someday will travel back to me.
