I wake today to the darkest morning
Up before the lazy sun
Sipping coffee, my mind still hazy
Softly arising from the state of dreaming

I am pondering,
wondering
engaging into life
stabbing at reality
with my sharp mental knife

I think to myself if given one gift
what would I want?
Well I tell you it's this.....

I would wish for
A life of peace
A world of hope
A dream to release
A vision to take flight
And a ribbon of love
to wrap it up tight

I would wish that this gift you see
be for everyone to receive
A little present of harmony
That's the gift of my wildest dreams
That's the present we all need it seems.
