Wishes
A Wish I make on this night fair,
That all who listen and do care,
See what is right in front of them,
Not just the negative found within.
They know deep in their heart of hearts,
That healing begins within and starts,
To grow if they but let it be,
And give thanks where they cannot see.
For it is the unseen we must address,
The hurt inside that all repress,
Those things that make us burn inside,
Things that make us run and hide.
And only we know what they are,
As we fly amongst the stars,
At times in dreams they burn our eyes,
But we know better when rise.
And hear the beauty all around,
Murky and muffled or joyful sound,
That can be seen if we but look,
Around us all and like a book,
We see written on the pages within,
Words of our hearts, some loose some win
Rewriting pages as we go,
Our eyes they open then we know,
That our wishes are granted every day.
The small and large each comes in play,
As we see the little things we do,
To both each other and also within you.
It makes a difference to open our eyes,
Makes a difference seeing the skies,
The sun the moon the earth the air,
Each is a wish given us to share.
Walk out your doors in morning light,
Look and see and let soul take flight,
Knowing that each day is new.
This is the Wish I ask for You!
