WATER 4-6-2020
I want a sip of water,
a taste..please!
I want just a little,
to quench my thirst.
I want to hold the moon,
in my hands.
I want to sooo..maybe,
run my fingers through the moonlight.
I want to fly once more,
upon a plane this time.
I want an open canopy old style plane,
that I can feel the moonlight breeze on my face.
I want to be young again..if,
only for just one day.
I want to be able to run for miles,
feeling the blood pumping in my legs!
I want to see my relatives now gone,
for a moments embrace.
I want to say hello,
before I go.
I want to dive to the ocean bottom,
to know what is truly deep!
I want many things,
I cannot keep.
If only wishes were horses..
If only fairytales were real..
If only time was a friend
and life did not end..
if we just quit the koolaid..
We could sip the water,
more than a taste..
please!
