Wishes

Why is it we hang on to those things of which we cannot acquire?
Hopes and wants unobtainable, beyond our grasp, but within our desire?

So... be careful what you wish for…

I wish for a rainbow to awe the sky,
To replace the oppressive storms gone by.
I wish for colors to beam and bounce
Around my head, within my heart.

I wish for red, color of passion, need and blinding fire.
I wish for orange, excitement, danger, adrenaline desire.

For yellow, mirth and merry, sunshine, play.
Green~ earth, knowledge, growth, insight's special way.

I wish for blue~ the sky, the sea, peace, tranquility,
For violet, purple fantasy, spiritual, bountiful artistry

But most of all I wish for white. White light, pure, natural, well of delight.
For white is the color of all the above. White, the color of one's true love.
