A wish by the fireflies

If I could fill my soul 
With the beauty of this dying flower.
If my moments of hope 
Would drain out every worry 
And sorrow of life. 
If this minute makes  
Everyone equal in love, life and joy.

Let no one's living be difficult 
Let happiness and home come 
As easily as it does 
To the fortunate ones.

Let life be fair please 
And if some mad person's whim this universe 
Let it bend towards peace and love.

Exhales...
