What would they be?
1. Perhaps to make me a better poet. Im indecisive with my wishes. Maybe a poem will clarify my desire. Ahem. Here it goes.
2. I wish upon a wishing star/
That mankind would end it all/
Toil, strife, violence, and all that mar/
Beauty that nature given to enthrall/
Upon our eyes doth we ourselves see/
All the worlds in deep calamity/
Indeed I wish for such wild things/
For mankind to bring tidings!/
Upon one another and to the world in kind/
With sincere gratitude, never repined!/
Such a wish would content mankind/
And yet, alas my dream, in great irony/
Will never be met with through the consitution of our kind/
Which nature granted to us without care and poorly/
Eh. The ending seems weak.
