I wish

I wish I was a bird
Roaming the skies
With no worries
Flying wherever you please
With only time to waste
And waiting to arrive

I wish I was a mountain
Sitting in the ground
With no worries
Watching over time
With aging skies
And life springing

I wish I was a cat
Exploring the world
With no worries
Running freely
With things to chase
And life to amend

I wish I was a tree
Standing still
With no worries
Waiting for the sun to rise
With leaves appearing
And branches to grow

I wish I was the universe
Cherishing the world
With no worries
Creating stars
With others dwindling
And life to nurse

Very nice, peace inducing work here. I notice the phrase "with no worries" recurs in every verse. The verse about cats rang especially true. My wife and I have two of them and they truly have no worries. Furthermore, they know they're entitled to it.

I know the feeling of having a cat :) Thank you for this review, I'm happy that you came upon this peace.
