PAD 4 - Wish

For today’s prompt, write a wish poem. The poem could be about making a wish or granting a wish. It could focus on the fallout from a wish granted or denied. Or think up a wishful scene to share in your poem.



Wish

We understand
with the dandelion

that the way to make a wish
is to be sincere
to focus
to gather your intention
and then blow the whole damn thing apart

so that all parts
 - light, gentle, designed for journey

can float and lift and drift
in a breeze

random and tender

just on their way now

some catching light

some  
will grow into another weed
radiating like a little sun
for a time
then aging into another

– gathered puff of hope.
