My Wish List

I wish I had tranquil
candy stripes the gold bars
the rhythm of giants
a small notepad
with the words
winner of time away
on the list of things
to do: nod out
on a hammock
in the country
with fluffy cotton
stuff and a calming
potion. Mint scented
air pine strips
a cake of rice
and some veggies.
And of course you
with your soothing
voice reading Shelley
to me in my sleep
kissing me between
every word.
