I have wished for
Skinnier legs
Perfect vision
Clearer skin
Better math skills
A flatter stomach
Straight hair
Longer hair
Less hair
More manageable hair all around
Or at least no frizz

I have wished for
A less demanding job
A windfall of money
A helicopter
For things I've already procured

I have wished for
Sunny skies 
And rainy days
A broken heart to mend
Different endings
A dog to live longer
Better barbeque sauce
No speeding ticket
As I topped 100

I have wished for
Island vacations
No snakes
More comfortable shoes
A meeting with Sturgill Simpson
A phone call
And to simply go home

I have wished for
People to change
People to stay the same
People to stay
People to go
People to disappear
To forget
And forgive

I have wished for many things
Some I got
Some I prayed for
Some I worked for
Some that aren't within my reach

But that never kept me from wishing
For one more thing
And I hope
Wishes are like pennies 
That they turn up
Just when you need one
