If wishes were dust,
I'd have a house full.
Oh wait, I already do.

If wishes were dishes,
I'd have sinks full.
Oh wait, I already do.

If wishes were laundry,
I'd have baskets full.
Oh wait, I already do.

If wishes were stars,
I'd have a sky full.
Oh wait, I already do.

If wishes were you,
I'd have a heart full.
Oh wait, I already do.

Ahhh, such a simple, sweet poem, and I know the one it is intended to swells with happiness when he reads the words. Unique. Very Lori.
