If I only had one wish...

If I only had one wish…

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are. If I had one wish I would wish for the will to wish. I would wish for the innocence of a child that sits on her knees at night with folded fist praying & wishing. She squeezes her eyes tightly pleading for her desire to come to pass as her dad stands near the door spying upon her request eager to make her wish come true. I want to wish with confidence and expectation, with intention and preparation, with assuredness that my father is standing at my bedroom door waiting eagerly to make my wish come true. Ridding myself of all doubt and debate as I wish like Ive never had a promise broken. Each wish would be like the first with much passion and zeal believing that my wishing alone made me worthy of seeing it come to pass.

Up above the world so high, Like a diamond in the sky. If I only had one wish I would wish for the will to wish. I would wish that I would be like a child watching a fairytale excited and thrilled with no knowledge that what she is watching may not be real. An unadulterated heart believing all things are possible to him that believe. I wanna wish, wish, & wish with an open heart and mind ready to receive that which I asked. I wanna wish, wish, & wish with a hope and a dream of someone with no limits/no boundaries. I want a soaring imagination that would allow me to wish for my hearts desire with specifics trimmed in gold.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, How I wonder what you are! If I only had one wish I would wish for the will to wish. I would wish for the ability to wish blindly with no facts or data just a wonder, leaving me wanting to explore every possibility imaginable. My only wish today is the ability to wish. So you ask me if I only had one wish I would wish for many wishes. As I boldly kneel down at my bedside knowing I have the right to be there I would wish that my wishing heart be returned to me. I am squeezing my eyes tightly now imagining myself wishing, praying, and hoping for my one wish….my wish for the will to wish. I know that if I am given this one wish I will dream dreams, see visions, make plans, and accomplish more than even my wildest wish could conjure. Yeah...my one and only wish would be for the will to wish. I want to believe again, I want to love limitlessly again, I want to wish upon a star yet again. I want to tell the little girl standing in the screen with her jumpsuit, clear jellies, and fresh beeded hair that your daddy is coming, HE is coming, HE has to come because he has your one wish….your wish for the will to wish. “Wish on daughter, Wish on”.

Until next time ladies,
