"Wishing Well"
sign above the well reads:
'ten cents a wish'
'a dime for all
your hopes and dreams'
lines form from
town to town
people waiting
for their chance
for happiness
and fulfillment
in their
gray
dull
boring
little lives
'ten cents a wish'
they say
'a dime for all
your hopes and dreams'
skeptics
line up
for their chance
to be the first
to call it false
to criticize
all of those
who do believe
and they wait
with dimes in hands
as they try
to understand
and they wish
they understood
cast a coin
into the ground
into the lonely,
little well
(a top a hill
in grassy lakes
in a quiet,
little town)
with a dusty
little sign
that reads:
'ten cents for a wish'
