Wishes
Many must have wished
To possess the ability of a bird
To fly and sail through oceans with wings
To overcome the cheat of time
And to champion the sky
Many must have wished
To become mighty and dreadful like elephant
To intimidate others with great power
And to have many people as servants
Many must have wished
To possess the fierceness of lion
To wield great powers
And to lord it over nations
Many must have wished
To become beautiful and elegant like peacock
To display pulchritude with great pride
And to oppress others with elegance
Indeed, wishes give essence to life
A solid reason to continue living
Fuels that keep the mind going
And air that aids the existence of humanity
But it must remain unpolluted by wickedness
And it must be free from covetousness
It mustn't prove hazardous to others
