#21: Poem: I Wish

I wish ...

For lazy days in cluttered bookstores
For meandering walks in shaded parks
For swirling dances in the soaking rain

For intimate cuddles in the dark night
For whispered sighs of deep contentment
For echoed cries of passion unrestrained

For bubbling children never far away
For idle excursions to the shopping mall
For travel adventures in distant lands

For magical hours of poetry reading
For quenching delight in fresh writing
For lingering encounters with enigmatic art

For gentle floating on music's breeze
For reflected drama on theatre stages
For great movies with popcorn and coke

For butterfly kisses in unexpected places
For warm hugs for no reason whatsoever
For holding hands in silent understanding

For roaming talks without destinations
For playful experiments with illusions
For soul journeys to unseen worlds

For growing old through the seasons
For slowing down as the years go by
For being happily in love for ever after

... with you
