New Poetry Contest: Wish
Submitted by: Lauren A., age 13, Frankston, TX
Wishes
You can wish upon a shooting star.
It’s almost like a spell.
You get a wish if you toss
A coin into a well.
And if you blow dandelion seeds
Up into the air
Or if you pass a horse of white
The wish is yours, I swear.
A leprechaun can grant you three
If there is one that you can seize.
And if a ladybug lands upon your hand,
Blow her back into the breeze.
One last wish I think I’ll tell,
Simply stare at the darkening sky,
When you see the first star blink into sight,
Say a wish; it’s yours, no lie.
