If wishes were fishes

Oceans would be teeming,

If wishes were kisses

I’d believe I was dreaming.

***

If wishes were dreams

I’d sleep through the day,

If wishes were loving

I’d be feeling okay.

***

If wishes could travel

I’d be there with you,

If wishes were sensual

I’d give more than a few.

***

If wishes were coins

I’d be extremely rich,

If wishes were lucky

I’d sew in every stitch.

***

If wishes were happy

I’d smile all day through,

If wishes were true

I’d never be blue.

***

If wishes were easy

I’d have all I need,

If wishes were magic

I know I’d succeed.

***

If wishes came true

I’d be somewhere new,

If wishes time travelled

I’d come and find you!

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
