I Wish

Wow! I wish so many things But, if wishes were horses Anyone could ride! One wish of mine, Like Maslow's law of motivation May relegate to the background Giving rise to another wish So, my wishes change from time to time. When I was small, I wished that my rooms were filled with chocolates And I would relish them as much as I like. Wish for beautiful dresses and new dolls Was too strong at one time Then I wished for story books To read and read without stop, But my love for reading gave way to a new wish And I wished to become a writer Like Manoj Das or Rabindranath. But all wishes can not be fulfilled So, let us be satisfied with what we have Though, never give up our striving..
