Windblown Wishes

Windblown Wishes

Windblown wishes
Dreams in jars
Angel's kisses
Falling stars

Greener pastures
Clearer skies
Mother's dreams
Baby cries

Silver dollars
Young boys smile
Cotton candy
Stay awhile

Chiffon dresses
Country dance
Winking eyes
Quick shy glance

Wedding chapel
Say I do
Honeymoon
Time just flew

Windblown wishes
Clearer skies
Angels kisses
Baby cries

*G* I appreciate it a lot. Still love that smile and tan. I have a couple of leather jackets too. One from my motorcycle days (with chaps) and one dress jacket. Looking forward to your next poem.

Your new student

Rett, I carry my black slate and chalk into your class as a student to learn Aa Bb Cc. I like the style, short lines loaded with unspoken words. Teach me, I beg of, to tell the story of my life with few words. Well done and cheers! T
