I Want…
I want to see flowers growing in my yard again.
I want to walk barefoot in the hot sand at the beach.
I want to look out to sea, and wonder who else in their lifetime, stood in the same spot and did the same.
I want to eat a big bowl of ice cream. No, make that a Banana Split, with fudge sauce, pineapple sauce, whipped cream, and a cherry.
I want to sing in the shower…any shower. (We only have an old-fashioned, claw foot, antique tub.)
I want to take my grandson to the zoo, when he is older, provided we can EVER find the Roger Williams Zoo in Rhode Island.
I want to make a red, white, and green quilt that is appliquéd and spectacular and that I put on my bed, only on Christmas.
I want to go swimming and hiking in some interesting place.
I want peace in the world, and peace for those who are suffering.
I want to see Butterflies again, and I want to ponder their historic symbolic meaning in various cultures.
I want enough time to read every book I’ve ever bought, from cover to cover.
What do you want?
Patricia
