I Try Not To Wish Poem by Phil Soar

I try not to wish
I just try to do
I just have this image
That none can see through
I just have opinions
I leave them outside
Beyond even my reach
They might injure my pride
I try not to gossip
It tears people apart
I try to be honest
I try to win hearts
I just try and simplify
All I can do
And keep my own status
I never review
I try not to wish
For impossible things
I try to envisage
A dove's delicate wings
The peace bird fly's over
I imagine its flight
Flying for everyone
A wonderful sight
I try not to wish
It makes little sense
For nothing is guaranteed
And all life is nonsense
