I Wish Poem by Stanley Cooper

I Wish

Rating: 5.0


I wish I could soar like an eagle
To get me a birds eye view
Of all goings on not quite legal
All governments seem to accrue

I wish I could work like a beaver
Politics then would be damned
Political underachievers
Forever politically banned

I wish I could swim like a fish
Holy Mackerel! What I wouldn't do!
I'd swimming-ly cook up a dish
Of fishy political stew

I wish I could pounce like a lion
Living my life with some pride
I'd bounce those politically lie-in'
To places they couldn't well hide

I wish I was swift as a deer
I'd run in the coming election
Where voters could end the careers
Of incumbents needing rejection

I wish I was more than just dreaming
Our political world's all askew
I'm just a well-wisher scheming
Who wishes his dreams could come true
