Poem #130 I wish I had……

I wish I had, my own little time machine,

To take me back in time;

To relive, life’s nostalgic scenes,

To cherish, the moments that have been.

I wish I had, my own little time machine,

To savor each feeling so fine;

Memories, I treasure in my mind as serene,

Yearn, for those golden days of mine.

I wish I had, my own little time machine,

To make many a different choice;

Turn my life, into what could have been,

Without its many ugly scars.

I wish I had, my own little time machine,

To bring back, the people I have lost;

Good people, who were never mean,

Only kindness, in their benevolent hearts.

I wish I had, my own little time machine,

To bring back those days of yore;

When life was simple, without false sheen,

Easy laughter and happiness galore.

I wish I had, my own little time machine,

Though I won’t let go, all of my current;

It could never be, a fair trade off,

While I have a foot, in both past and present!
