I Wish—A Poem

Make a poem full of wishes and when you do -

Remember, if you put your mind and heart behind them, your wishes, dreams and goals can and do come true.

Write down eight of your wishes.
They can be as realistic or fantastic
as you want them to be.
There! You've finished your poem.

Now, put a star next to your favorite wish. This one will become part of the "I Wish" class poem
