Wish I was a genius
Or at least close enough
Solving any problem
Before I'd eaten lunch
Wish I had a dollar
For each mistake I've made
Rolling in the green stuff
Instead of save save save
Wish I had some patience
While fishing on the lake
Few believe my story
Of one that got away
Wish I saw the dawning
Each day I've been awake
Too often so busy
Tending to my dismay
Wish I had more wishes
All somehow would come true
Because I feel happy
My wish is peace for you

Thank you for all the wishes.

Maybe I'm missing something, but there's my $0.02.
I enjoyed reading it.
Had another busy night at work. I just LOVE cost cutting measures.
Each day I've been awake
Too often so busy
Tending to my dismay
Even though you tried to put humor in this, the basic tone of this lovely poem is a sound message. I find this so warm, earthy and funny too. To joy and hope, then, William!!
Wish each kid who struggles
would find someone who cares!
I guess real peace would cover that one too...
I wish you angels on your pillow.
Not for the rain though, its still raining in Texas.
Beautiful articel my friend.
You can call me Earl, you call me what you will
You can say my name backwards
I really do not mind
You can say anything you want
But don't call me Mr. Dandelion
I used to think if they didn't happen I'd be filled with regret
But now I realize what matters most is what I can give
And follow God's plan with thankfulness
that I've had the love of friends, family and my kids
Surely Elsie could get to Michigan without going through Ohio. She could go through Canada and pick up some Canadian ants on the way. Perhaps some cheap drugs also.
I also wish and angel would come clean up my bedroom. I bought some new sheets with my Mother's Day gift card. (I don't like to rush into purchases.) I put them on today and had to throw the 8354 pieces of paper and IMPORTANT items that I had stored on my bed into the floor. Perhaps while I am sleeping the angel on my pillow will clean up the mess.
I sometimes look at a word and it just doesn't see like it is spelled right. I think it's the computer screen. I don't have that problem with pen and paper.
