What Do I Want?

The things I want most may not seem like much (or very important) to others….

What do I want? Not much, really

Sunshine, blue skies and beds of roses

Fields of wildflowers, colors in full bloom

Sunsets on the beach on a mid-summer’s night

And stars twinkling against a blanket of black

Candlelight and music mingled

With whispers of love, adoration and admiration

A hand to hold when life turns scary

A shoulder to cry on whenever I’m sad

A faithful friend who will never betray me

Promises kept and obligations met

Meaningful conversation and side-splitting laughter

Adventure and excitement; new challenges to meet

Peace of mind amidst a world of chaos

A sanctuary and a refuge and joy, unspeakable

Health and healing for my war-weary body

A clear path to follow, a plan for my life

An inner strength, courage to change my future

In the grand scheme of things

When so many clamor for fortune and fame

Power and prestige are not my goal

So what is it that I want? Not much to some

But it’s everything to me

May your humble requests come true.

Ps. Are you sure you dont want to put a Lexus in there.

LadyElena – perhaps a new Lexus…. My current vehicle is pretty old.

If there was anything I liked about this poem, then it was this:

“A clear path to follow, a plan for my life”

Great work Ashan!
