I Wish I Had

Unpublished

I wish I had wings to fly
Just like that dragonfly
I wish I had wings to fly

I wish I had a song to sing
As fee as that bird with wings
I wish I had a song to sing

I wish I were a tall oak tree
Waving in the evening breeze
I wish I were a tall oak tree

I wish I were a root so deep
Drawing water while I sleep
I wish I were a root so deep

I wish I were a skipping stone
And not merely flesh and bone
I wish I were a skipping stone

I wish I could fly away
From the sadness I feel today
I wish I could fly away

I wish I were the wind that blows
All around this place called home
I wish I were the wind that blows
