Wishing Well

Chris Butler

I wish I had
spare change,
even just a
jingle in my pocket.

I wish I had
a chance to change,
just to flush it down
a concrete drain.

I wish I had
a Susan B. Anthony
or a John F. Kennedy,
silver Washington,
Roosevelt or Jefferson,
even a copper Lincoln,
just so cents
made sense.

I wish I had
a million wishes,
all of which I
could waste on you.

Most of all, I wish I had
a wishing well,
but I couldn’t tell you
because it wouldn’t come true.
