To Wish Is...

by

Alisha Morgan

To cure world hunger
And have a roof over every head,
To make the old look younger
And Mema come back from the dead.

To be a beauty queen
And have the ability to fly,
To be a calculating machine
With a never-ending money supply.

To be the smartest
And the most envied,
To be a music recording artist
And to be a little less frenzied.

And I'd like a little hope,
And a few good friends.
To, maybe, one day elope,
But that just depends.

To have but one
And this one be true,
I am wishing that life has just begun,
'Cause I've got a lot of living to do.
