Wishes Three

If I were granted wishes three,
the first would be most certainly:
All hearts with charity would fill
while not one soul would lose free will.

The second would be just for me
if I were granted wishes three:
Creative thoughts would ever flow;
my full potential I would know.

I’d wish, for me and mine, good health. .  
more vital than material wealth.
If I were granted wishes three:
A hale and hearty family!

My dear ones strong, my muse inspired,
a world where pure love is desired!
What better wishes could there be
if I were granted wishes three?

For Amy Green's contest: If I Could Have Three Wishes
