I’ve had a response to my poem “Magic Wishes,” and that respondent said she wishes she had a magic wand, too, that she would use it to cure people of the big C.
I thought it might be kind of fun if we fantasized about this: So, if you had said magic wand, how would you use it?
There are so many opportunities. Curing cancer is certainly one. I would also give a complete life back to anyone who suffers from epilepsy. I would cure all childhood illnesses. I would provide strong arts programs in the schools. I would rebuild areas of the world where natural disasters have struck, leaving people homeless. I would, I would, I would…
And you? Weigh in. Dream big.

I would give back time to those who have truely and most certainly learned thier lessons – but perhaps that one has been done already, it is called eternity and trusting God for the rest…
ahh, but the children, could we give them back thier childhood to be children for a spell before they have to be adults? This way, they don’t have to pretend behind white knuckles and facades.

After curing cancer and AIDS and famine, world peace and more female government leaders in place …
I would grant some wishes for the people around me.

I would go back in time, with the knowledge I have now, and keeping my family from falling apart.
