Wishes on Blue Waters

In the orange glow of twilight

Near the blue Pacific waters

I freely cast my wishes

On the seas relentless whitecaps

Will they carry down to Triton?

Blow his conch shell

Calm the waters

Or raise the storms of oceans

And pull them deep down under?

If they sail on waves till morning

Magic carpets on air currents

Will the sun shine down upon them

Turning mist into fine sunbeams

In the arms of sleep I linger

Tossing dreams in silent slumber

When the light breaks through my window

Casting rays of light to find me

I’m adrift in sun and starlight

Whisper thin the veil that shrouds me

Half awake and half in dreamland

Where wishes made can guide me
