Wishful Warning
Cast your wishes upon the wind
into a great vast empty sky
Surrender desire to an unknown fate
Pray kindness is your friend
and the devil has another date
Beware of nature's trickery
Remember there is no guarantee
Those wishes have been set free
Will they fall in a rainbow shower
landing on the petals of a flower
Returning the sweetest perfume
Or be caught unaware
In a witches broom
To become your darkest nightmare
We cannot see
Will it be gloom or glee?
Those wishes have been set free
