I Wish...................... Poem by Sharmila Dhar

I Wish......................



I wish a million things,

I wish the world were a nicer place,

I wish people preferred daughters to sons,

I wish the lonely never felt so,

I wish children always understood adults,

I wish adults always respected children,

I wish those who were successful also found time to enjoy their success,

I wish the rich also used their wealth to better the world,

I wish that all children were loved equally,

I wish our loved ones were never taken away from us,

I wish people lived without regrets,

I wish everyone thought of giving back,
wish people bore no grudges,

I wish no one ever got hurt,

I wish no one took anyone for granted,

I wish people did not get attached to each other,

I wish even the smallest of deeds never went unnoticed,

I wish everyone always kept the big picture in mind,

I wish life was fair to one and all,

I wish the selfish never almost always got away,

I wish some people were not born too emotional

I wish, on the other hand, some people wouldn't bottle up their emotions,

I wish only like-minded people ended up living together,

I wish relationships would always stand the test of time,

I wish people would not take each other for granted in a relationship,

I wish people learnt as they grew and aged,

I wish people would remain the same despite their circumstances,

I wish there were no secrets kept,

I wish people were more grateful for what they had,

And I finally wish I had not started to wish in the first place.
