To wake up each morning, thrilled by a kaleidoscopic dream
that makes me want to run by the meadow and chase those little white and yellow butterflies who graciously court the wildflowers of the still dew-damp earth..
To keep a treasure that doesn't sparkle but defines who i am years after..
To meet a new friend and never have to pretend...
To cry and let tears fall when it hurts and not always play brave...
To not feel shy to ask for a kiss
and to simply say I love you and truly mean it...
To climb the mango tree again to the highest branch
and consume my lungs as I sing with the Wind...
To gasp in wonder at that breath-taking rainbow
and believe that it is God's way of saying sorry
for yesterday's storm...
And to gaze with enchanted eyes at that beautiful golden sunset
as the sun bids me goodbye...
To wish, with all my heart, upon the first shimmering star
that lit up the velvety twilight sky..
To throw a kiss upon Mother Moon as I bade her goodnight
and listen to my personal lullaby as I fall asleep by the window, waiting for Peter Pan to swoop by...
Oh and to once more believe in fairy dusts,
that together with Faith, will make me fly!
Ahh...to see the world again with innocent wonder
and ready acceptance of things as they are...
To be a child once more...
