Paper Airplane


I often ponder the places I wish to visit,

All the things I want to experience,

All the people I want to help.

One night, I had a very special idea

To write all of the places down,

Draw a little stick figure, too,

And construct a paper airplane.

When the first star comes out,

I throw it into the sky,

The night time breeze setting its course,

My only wish is to arrive by dawn.
