I made a wish in soft whisper that only the rainbow heard and as if in magical response, she splashed her dazzling and multi coloured
stripes across the giant sky, beholding my eyes in awe and promise,
then vanished into the depth of the heavens...
I made a wish in soft whisper that only the twinkling stars heard in the
stillness of the night; And as the veil of darkness proclaimed the silent
night, the stars winked their sparkling eyes at me in a thousand shiny
promises...
I made a wish in soft whisper that only the trees heard in the quiet of
the forest, and as I paved my way through their paradise so green, they
bend to caress my face in gentle tenderness & rekindled my heart as if in renewing my spirit...
as I threw a pebble upon it's waters & watched it bounce playfully on
the ripples, I heard the waters hearty laugh as they pursued their long
journey to the great seas...
I made a wish in soft whisper that only the setting sun heard as she
bathed the mountain tops; She glanced at me in bold light one last
time before bidding good night, with promises of morning - where
once again, she would rise from the east...
I made a wish in soft whisper on a cold night in the nakedness of the
desert, that only the whistling winds heard; And now my wishes lay
laughing upon the sands of golden dunes, looking upward once again
at the flamboyant coloured stripes dancing in the heavenly skies...
