I Wish
I wish I were invited to say what's in my heart
Using vibrant colors of my imagination's palette
I'd paint a universe that’s bright and cheerful
I wish I were called upon to scatter words
Like a million stars clear across the sky
I’d happily sprinkle wishes far and wide
Bringing hope to every sad child of the world
How I wish the clouds would open wide and
I’d fold each of their tears into magical paper airplanes
To reach in heaven every child's lost mom and dad
