I Want To... Poem by Nestor David Armas

I want to play
With the shiny things,
I want to fix
The broken stuff,
I want to grow
The seeds of thoughts,
I want to learn
All that no one knows,

All that needs affection,
I want to cook
All the recipes of the imagination,
I want to play
With the toys forgotten,
I want to fix
What others gave up on,
I want to grow
That which needs nurturing,
I want to learn
All that is new and mysterious,
I want to love
All that is hated,
I want to cook
For those who hunger,
I want to,
