Analysis of A wish
In my yester days
Rose was red
Today it has turned white
Day after tomorrow
I know it will invite color yellow
To go and grow dry
And will say, look I am now
Without petals only I
A pale white yellow deals but
Stem of my love is still green
So take a chance of life
If you could
Read me a while
Gather the cloud above
To make me red
Again with your rain
I will be delighted even in pain
