The Ballad of a Doughnut
There once was some dough
that went through a process.
Was born once again
in a form the was new.
All started out well
for the newly made doughnut
until it was heated
and eaten by you.
I Wish
I wish I had a billion $100 dollar bills in my closet.
I wish I had strength.
I wish I had more genies.
I wish I had a pet squirrel.
I wish I had a multi billion dollar company.
I wish I had a white wooly yak named Will.
I wish had a doughnut.
I wish I had a magic wand
to make all my wishes
come true.
