I Want by Coletha Albert

I want to write poems by the Red Sea, Niagara Falls, and the Sargasso Sea. I want to smell the air in Bermuda and Palermo. I want to count the stars while sipping coffee on Mars.

You can’t give me what I want. But I CAN💜

What I want

Money can’t buy

I won’t find it in liquor

It’s not found in getting high

It’s priceless

It’s anointed

It’s holy

It’s immortal

Thieves can’t steal it

Witches can’t spell it

Witches can’t hex it

Family can’t molest it

Teachers can’t test it

Dumb people can’t fail it

——

Love

Joy

Peace

Kindness

Security

Beauty

Health

And coffee on Mars

That’s what I want…

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨💜💫
