I Wish

I Wish

I wish for the uncomplicated joys of life
For the winds in my hair
And bare feet on cold sand
To feel the salt waters, their spray, thoughts sweet
Journey with me then, hold my hand

I wish to touch the skies
Mystical blues… far horizons
Distant dreams.. I want to pursue
A cornered smile, ha ha
Yes I have yearned for these

Be ingenuous to myself,
Was this my conquest, every moment of glee?
Did I not wander, further seas to see
Plunge to the flurry of the green,
Seeking to hold, grasp all within

Tranquil moments shying away,
Veracity loud, screaming, not a play
The deafening silence..
Quietude settles in, conscious now my frightened paths
Turn back to my skies… known trails..sigh
I awake to thee my wishes oh simple joys.
