Wishes

a poem by Gautam Dhar

Wandering through the redwood trees
Listening to the soft summer breeze
Staring at the blue old sky
I know the life will pass me by

But I’ll ask the winds to sing a song
Some words for you to hum along
The sound so sweet and oh so true
A wish so warm to see you through

Looking at the stars above
I wonder what they’re thinking of
Just thinking about the passing time
Still longing for that long lost chime

But I’ll ask the moon above to say
To bring you love oh night and day
The touch so sweet and oh so true
A wish so warm to see you through

For words are all that I can give
Until the day this heart will live
I wish so much this song could say
That’s all I wish forever and today.
