Wishes Poem by Christine K. Trease

Little lips pursed tight together
Sun kissed cheeks in springtime weather
Pausing for what seems forever
To execute this grand endeavor

Little eyes scrunched tightly closed
Held in hand and strike a pose
Although it may not be a rose
It's better still I do suppose

Breath sucked deep, anticipation
Children all across the nation
Hold Mother Natures grand creation
On any moment or occasion

It will happen without trying
It is the truth I won't be lying
A zillion wishes soon will be flyin'
From one magical dandelion
