For your happiness I do wish,
But with my eyes ‘tis not to see,
Nor good fortune to make you rich,
A waste to wish what you do not need,
For you to reside where you may thrive,
Your light will shine wherever you are,
Somewhere out of sight and out of mind,
I wish this wish to you from far,
For you to vow I do and mean it,
Perhaps down by the pier or harbor,
No matter where I’m sure it scenic,
Not a word round here appears the barter,
For you to Mother as you were Mothered,
Send my best to her as well,
For winter nights warm with your lover,
Unbeknownst to me no regrets to dwell,
For strength and health through the vital tests,
To be held dearly when you get weary,
For your love to last ‘til your final breaths,
I shall never know, yet these are all My Wishes Clearly
