I had a wish to find the reddest rose
the dream of love
a blossom without thorns
I wished for green spring and rain
a field of yellow daffodils
like friends laughing in the breeze
I had a wish in lavender and royal
to stand upon a hill
and claim a valley kingdom
the blue sky of summer's worship
was an answered prayer
the touch of cooling water
I wished for the orange tree bloom
a white perfume of desire
and the ghost of yesterday
I yearned for brown and burgundy
the crumpled maple leaf
the oak in sorrel mourning
