Please Grant Me This Wish

by Lu   May 18, 2006


Winds of warm kindness
cleanse our air of hatred
refresh our forgetful minds
please grant me this wish

Rains of compassion
wash away the pain
of the suffering children
please grant me this wish

Fires of sweet love
spread your wisdom wide
for a world of beautiful harmony
please grant me this wish

Mountains of strength
teach us to stand tall
speak out for those unable
please grant me this wish

Waters of tranquility
purify the sinful souls
give them strength to change
please grant me this wish

Trees of generosity
teach us to love one another
for the beauty that lays within
please grant me this wish

Sands of promise
bury my past mistakes
make me a better person
please grant me this wish

    Very nice! I like how you twisted elements of nature with each wish, something I never would've thought of.
    The last stanza is brilliant, my favorite in this piece. Take care and keep it up~Holly
