The hopes and desires of the wishing well

Bring forth from my longing eyes a watery droplet

That hangs for a moment and then slides gently down my cheek

Onto my lip awaiting the taste of the salty stream of my expectations

The flavour recalling a beautiful seaside scene, youth in its element

And a family outing to be cherished forever

A hopefulness knowing no imagined boundaries

Limitless possibilities in an ocean of moments

Daring to dream and holding on tightly to these visions

Following my fantastic way for all my years.

Changes abound, and adapting becomes a skill

Emotions hover between despair and joy

Logic veers from pillar to post and heaven to hell

A life worth living and a life well lived.
