I Wish

I wish I could feed the hungry

Standing in the food bank queues

I wish I could give more guidance

To the desperate with monies overdue.

I wish I could help the bedridden

Walk just one  mile with me.

I wish I could open the eyes

Of those that will not see.

I wish I could stop

Families being torn apart.

Most of all to those in power I wish

To give compassion in their heart.
