Wishes and Stars

Wishes and Stars

A Poem by Neal S

Who knows what the future brings
Wishes, travels, stars and things
And who really knows "where the wild things are"
Or if its Thing 1 or Thing 2 that needs to borrow your car
Sometimes we go up
And sometimes we go down
But on occasion we go sideways
With neither a smile nor a frown
So if you ever find yourself 
Moving sideways
Lost on highways
Going up or down
Smiles or frowns
Going backwards in your car
Or even wearing stripes behind bars
Just turn
And look
I'll be there
Holding my bag of wishes and stars

I really like this one. A lovely declaration of commitment and hope.
Also, I love that you incorporated a child like element in the beginning.
Unconditional loyalty is what it feels like.

Loyalty was the underlying tone to this..Dr Seuss inspired.

Cool. Definitely comes through. And who doesn't love Dr. Seuss?
I like how it describes life as it should be. Normal, weird, good, bad, unexpected... all good things on our road. There's always hope and happiness too, as long as we keep our "bag of wishes and stars"

Thanks Christian. Very kind.
A really strong message framed with some childhood imagery and a suessical sort of feel. I love the contrast.
