Poezja

I wish I could look at a flower through your eyes
and discover why you are so fascinated by it
I wonder why your eyes glisten
when you look at the stars,
and why you smile at the moon.
I wish I could find out what triggers you
to jump and skip, or giggle with glee
and I strain my ears to hear the silent melody
which causes you to break out in song
I wish I could embrace someone so firmly
as you do when you jump up to greet me
I wish I were like you when I was a child.
