Priceless Wishes

I wish for honey to keep dripping   

I wish a hummingbird would land on my hand  

I wish smooth iridescent shell covered the walls of my house  

I wish I could bury my face in the left dimple of your cheek   

I wish that I could bottle my mother’s smell and spray it when I missed her  

I wish my only sustenance was love  

I wish I could see Danni’s widow peaked profile and translucent blue eyes from the side  

I wish death was something I looked forward to  

I wish I knew myself better  

I wish I could meet the spirits that tease me in my dreams  

I wish I could raise my kids next to my parents in my childhood house  

I wish I was brave enough to be brilliant and talented  

I wish I could sing and sunbathe all day in a meadow full of cherry trees  

I wish I could collect the feathers from the birds of paradise  

I wish God would talk to me  

I wish I could see His face  

I wish I could capture the feeling your body makes as you succumb to sleep in my arms  

I wish I could hold your hand while floating sandwiched between a sea of bioluminescence and a sea of stars
