O To Give Wishes Words

Men hope women vouch their wish— buts nor ifs, And wish, friends were to open up often, Wives and live-ins would spell out clear with lips, Parents want their kids to be more open. If only we give wishes wordy wings! For, vague wishes only frustration reap, Let us decode our dreams' subtle meanings, And on cherished but vague dreams lose no sleep. If only we ask life what it would give, That we know what we want and know to take, Our prayers know what they wish to receive, Let's be ready a Bucket List to bake. If life looks like a terminal patient On a deathbed, counting days left to live, Her shadow shortening every moment, Let's learn to stretch our time ere last night's eve. Our dreams' desires do when deepest roots strike, Our thoughts and feelings coax seedlings to grow, Desired fruits would sure show one fine morrow— Fire fuelling desires, like attracting like! So when things fail on their own to happen, Do try giving wishes the wings of words, Words not vague and loose, but sharp and shaven; Things happen when desire soars free like birds. Life's lent to encash notes promissory, And in trust, not suffer in misery. ______________________________________________________ Musings | 07.06.08 |
