I Wish a Wish
by Abby , grade 5
 
I wish a wish most people have
That the twin towers didn't crash,
A wish that people would never cry,
That people would be honest and never lie.
A wish that cancer
Would be beaten,
That the world's people
Would have all eaten.
A wish that there were not such things as wars
So everybody could have open doors,
A wish for life without hatred or need,
There would be no place for prejudice and greed.
Remember peace begins with me
I, a child,
You, a friend,
Us all together,
Peace.
