Wishes

By Cythra and Almarius


If wishes were fishes,
They wouldn't get kisses.
Have they a missus,
Spending their riches?


Would we embrace them,
Hugging their fish fins?
In the ocean's waves, we'd swim,
Beneath the enchanting sky's whims.


If they paid in scale,
Would you wish for a whale?
With hope to set sail,
In our wonderful fairy tale


Would wishing get stale?
Not on our endless trail.
Each wish, a timeless tale.
In our hearts, they prevail

Conception Notes:

What happens when you write about half of a piece, with one complete stanza and a few partial stanzas, at least one of which has only one line, then decide to dump the rest onto a poor unsuspecting soul who just woke?
This!

For me it all started with the line, "If wishes were fishes". I was determined that it should be something silly.
For Alma, it probably started with, "Whaaaa?" She did great though.
