David Harris - Wishes

When you see a falling star,
do you ever make a wish?
When you blow out all the candles
on your birthday cake,
do you ever make a wish?
When you throw a coin
into a wishing well,
do you make a wish?

If you make a wish
on these occasions,
the question I want to know.
Of all those wishes that you made,
did at least one of those wishes
ever come true for you?
