PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I wished I could go to Easter Island

to see the top-hatted statues stare

until I read somewhere

pirates stole slaves from there



I wished I could go to Tibet

spinning prayer wheels in town square

until I learned their prayers

went nowhere



I wished I could go to Las Vegas

rent a room at any cost

until I learned my fate would change

with all the money I lost



I wished I could work in a hospital

patients were cared for there

until I read the money ran out

and the bosses lied without care



I wished I could go to India

to see the Taj Mahal

until I learned that love

was not fair at all
