I Wish
I wish I was a naughty squirrel
playing among the leaves,
Wish I were the childish coconuts,
hanging with the big leaves and dancing with the wind.
Wish I was a crow or sparrow, flying across the sky,
I Wish to be the sky with endless dreams.
Wish I was the Sun, brighter than anyone else,
Wish I was the moon, beautiful than anyone else.
I wish I were a luminous star, twinkling in the night sky,
Or wish I was a planet, with diamonds raining on my eye.
I wish I was a human, which I already am,
Gaining knowledge from everywhere, how grateful I am!
