If wishes were horses then I would need a large stable
With time on hand and daydreams at heart I am able
To let my imagination fly off the handle
The realities I have disrupted in the bargain it will be vandal
Be careful what you wish for, somebody once predicted
What if wishes came true will actualities be evicted
Sometimes we cannot value enough all the things we possess
Sometimes we spend a lifetime desiring things you cannot access
As a child I always felt being adult would be so much fun
I would have no one instructing me and no homework to be done
With all the freedom in the world I could even start my own cult
Some years into adulthood and I am fed up of being adult
As a teen I used to think I am sandwiched in between
Kids get away with murder seniors can be quite mean
It seemed the world was waiting for me to grow up and mature
Now I am responsible for the world even Greece’s fiscal policies for sure
When I stepped into the world full of young ideas and bravura
I realised they are controlled by old statesmen of another era
A heady mix and mismatch of time and age and action
My wish to change the world at large is going out of fashion
Sometime ago I wished for some peace some quality time at home
Somebody up there fulfilled it so and now nobody is allowed to roam
They put the brakes on all our running around like headless chickens
Here we are with time and loved ones at once and in our dens
Now I hear everyone is wishing to make this turn around
Too much tranquility for earthlings we need to make some sound
Social distancing in itself is oxymoron we cannot be bound
By boundaries of our own homes in protest we call it lockdown
Now families have been introduced to each other and learnt
What role is played by who and why the toast has burnt
I wonder what will happen once we return to status quo
There will be new ‘normal’ now we must let the old world go
