Rhymes of the Heart

The Old Wishing Well

I've tried blowing out the candles,
but it never comes out right.
And the wish upon me star,
always falls from my site.

Theres no Genie in a bottle,
to help me along the way.
And no Aladdin's lamp,
for me to rub this day.

There are no ruby slippers,
to click and take me home.
I've only one chance left,
before my hope is gone.

Here at this old wishing well,
where many coins were tossed,
They say theres magic working here,
and no wishes ever lost.

I close my eyes make a wish,
toss my coin into the well.
You ask me what my wish was,
oh no, I'll never tell.
