Wish

 I saw the Sun

and wished to be one.

Never knew the science 

never cared, all I wanted -

To be the Sun.

I didn't seek advice

I didn't even bother to learn. 

They say, you could be anything 

What else to wish for. 

One morning I began

to climb; everyone

saw me crawling.

But I was climbing.

I saw a tiny bird

soaring up high,

Then a hawk - followed

by a plane then a rocket. 

I set out to find

a rocket; there was none

I could afford. 

So I began to climb 

People walk past me.
