Wishes Upon A Tree


There was a lonely young boy

Who wished upon a tree,

His wish not for a toy

His wish not to be free

He wished all his loneliness fall

Come true just one dream


When the boy became a young man

He went back to the tree

Took a little of the lying sand

And recalled his vivid dream

His wish not fulfilled

Unsatisfied, he went to the stream


There stood he by the stream

He wished upon its placid roar

He wished again his vivid dream

His dream swam to the river floor

Though alive in nature so it seemed

Disheartened he closed his hearts door


There was once that young man

And he seemed to have gotten on

His dream forgotten as best as can

His hopes seemed to have left and gone

He thought he tried

He thought he moved on


But this young man knew not nature

Knew not surprises sweet of its bosom

Just one morning his wish ruptured

And his dream drew forth a kingdom

There came forth a princess

Smiled and she kissed him on his lips.
