I wish I could paint your beautiful face, but the paint would dissolve at its sight.
I wish I could write the words of your song, but the tune would surpass the frequency of human ears,
I wish I could make a monument to your greatness but the clay would bow down in shame,
I wish I could speak your beauty but my tongue would tremble at the utterance,
I wish I could dance your dance but my ankles would twist in incapability,
I wish I did not need to wish,
But it is the wish that makes me desire,
Dream,
Float,
And reach.
I love this poem. It's inspirational and humble and full of life all at once!! This poem paves the way to greater and greater understanding which begins by, as this poem shows, gratitude to the creator.
