Wishing For Wings

Wishing For Wings

By R.e. Taylor

I wish for a set of wings

I don’t want to be an angel

I don’t want to go to Heaven

There is no way I would be welcome there

I just want to fly above the clouds

I want to look back on this sad planet

With all of its blue and green

No borders or governments

Where people are mere specks

No races or religions

Just one people living together

Sharing this sad little world

I wish for a set of wings

I don’t want to be an angel

I don’t want to go to Heaven

I only want to see life as it should be

Is that too much to ask
