THREE LITTLE WISHES

THREE LITTLE WISHES

I saw a light from afar 
Falling from heaven 
Like a pitching star

How beautiful it looked 
With a long fiery tail
But it's blaze startled me
As it drew near

My spirit were calmed 
When it landed so soft 
An angel appeared 
From this glistening craft

Her hair was as red
As burning coals 
Her eyes pierced through the darkness
Of my dreaded soul 

I was sent to grant you
Three wishes this day 
Just ask and its your 
The angel says 

Remove the wickedness 
From the hearts of men 
Save our planet 
By the healing of our land

Cause all pain and suffering 
In our world to cease 
These are my three wishes 
Will you grant them please.

Wilford Barker.

Hi Rob.
i believe that,
Some things.. are much bigger than our wants..
wants are so shallow.. like sparks, they paint such beautiful pictures..
but in seconds they fade away...
Needs on the other hand.. sustains life.
Thanks for taking the time my friend.

Damn Wilford , that couldve been a poem in itself...
Heres a Haiku runoff for you

Regardless my wants 
I refuse to be selfish 
when others have needs 

Bigger than myself 
I have everything I need 
not everyone does 

Life can distract us 
from really whats important 
but not you my friend 

             Keep being you WB you are a great rolemodel and i look up to you my friend.

Thanks Rob.
but there is no looking up to me my friend..
we look into each other eyes..
and realize that we may be from different parts of the earth 
but we are united in struggles, pains, experiences and VICTORIES.
Two souls cut from the same human  apparel.
Be of good health my friend.
