If I had one wish tonight I'd wish these miles away And hold you tightly in my arms Until the break of day I'd wish the world on someone else So time for us would stand still Then maybe in that length of time Of your love I'd get my fill I'd wish for wishes that I could give To you each and every day So that when we have to be apart You could wish these miles away |

*sigh* I'm not sure how much more of this I can take.  The swooning may have permanent side effects! I don't know what is causing this writing, but hold on tight to whatever it is. It's coming out beautifully.Trev. |

Paula~ Such lovely wishes on display Falling so softly far away Wishes have a way about 'em when they return to the heart they were wished upon Bringing from across the miles the very heart to make yours smile. Keep on wishing, hon. Lovely thoughts. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Paula, did you wish upon a star cause there's something celestial about this poem. Hope your wish comes true in every possible way. Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Distance makes the heart grow fonder..... I would rather have no distance at all..... I know I can be fond up close..... I miss my beloved as well.... |

miles between are mountains but they can be traversed with love and time. It would be nice if we had wishes to speak out and have come true. |

If it's meant to be, fait will decide. I too wish the mile away, so I could hold my angel close. I now play a chess game with fait, and hope with the faith of my love will bring me closer to winning the game of paitence and time. You truely speek from the heart. Very warm piece of poetry. I loved it. |
