The Wish
She wanted to hear the seagulls shrieking by the bay
and walk through gentle raindrops on a grey and foggy day
to see the purple crocus spreading across the hill
and look into the faces of every daffodil
to see the cherry blossoms floating through the skies
like a mad excited frenzy of paper butterflies
but the winter land was black and white
and snow was everywhere
so back she went to wishing land
curled up in her chair
