Best Wishful Thinking Poems
Wishful ThinkingTossing on my rocking chair,
In pitch sable dark of the night,
Where no stars shimmer in the sky,
Waiting for the early morning light.
The bay window is clean, with a wide scene.
Would the day reveal a land with woods so green?
Occasionally the moon penetrates
The heavy rainy...

Wishful ThinkingHave you ever tried to reach and touch a star,
those tiny twinkling specks that seem so far?
Or step across and walk on Rain's big bow
and sit and watch the world move down below?
Ever felt the wind and wondered where it goes,
this familiar friend that no...

Wishful ThinkingMy flesh yearns for your touch
As my soul cries out your
name
In my heart, I miss you
Although my mind wants to
send you away...
Our honest words hurt
Is it to late to take them back?
I wanted to hear you say
"I love you"
But you regretted...

Wishful ThinkingIf one can see beauty everywhere
If one can find light in their despair
If one can find strength when they are weak
If at one's lowest they still find a peak
If one with many losses can still see a gain
If one feels a love through all of...

Wishful ThinkingI sit with my feet touching the water
fascinated by a playful otter
near the river's edge, amid evergreens,
rolling along the sapphire surface sheens.
Swimming up and down propelling itself
enlightening up on a bare rock shelf.
Scattered green dwarf saplings I sit and spy
capricious. Once again and it's good-bye.
A...

Verse
Wishful ThinkingGlancing around,
All that I see,
Is 10,000 people,
Nothing like me.
Stuck in a rat race,
With their lofty goals,
Pushing forward,
Ignoring the tolls.
So many victims,
Of their blind trek,
Trampled underfoot,
Left in a wreck.
The sacrificial lambs,
All lead to the slaughter,
Just so they can make,
One more extra dollar.
Am I truly without purpose?
Or...

Wishful ThinkingAs I sit here, wishing he was here
Trickling down my face, are tears
I kept thinking, maybe it's not true
When's this nightmare through?
Had seen his name on different sites
Start to feel really uptight
Kept thinking maybe I am right
Some day he will be standing in sight
If...

Wishful ThinkingSo many times so quick to judge,
so easily, we bare that grudge
thinking the better of ourselves
as if we know whats good and well.
We give advice, to recieve none
heed what we say or be undone.
we always have a new way out
but never truly do escape,
or else...

Epic
Wishful ThinkingAs children we’d gather and toss
Dimes in wells, our to do wish
Old dreams wither in winter but
hope thaws in the spring, a new wish
Mine hands clasped in silent prayer
But no answer to my true wish
Time’s up, too many rain checks love,
Prithee grant that overdue wish
Our...

Ghazal
Wishful ThinkingAn old man sat thinking
Oh what shall I do
I really could do
With a woman or two!
The younger the better
Or three in a bed
Why are these thoughts
Going round in my head
But his looks were not pleasant
His age clearly showed
He looked like a frog
Or more so a...

Wishful ThinkingTo be literate makes us cock of the hoop.
If we cannot read we’re out of the loop,
but can a slowpoke,
and illiterate folk,
learn to read eating alphabet soup....

Ballad
Wishful ThinkingSometimes I wish
that I could fly away,
and leave my life behind-
if only for a day.
Sometimes I wish
my heart was made of stone.
It would be unbreakable
and I wouldn't feel alone.
Sometimes I wish
I could go back in time.
I would've done things differently
like I pictured in my...
