If wishes were horses....

I've never understood the meaning of that phrase. Yet I'm using it as a title. Maybe I should Google it right now, for once and for all. Anyways, I won't blabber much, here is some free verse I wrote:

NOTE: Please do not think I'm materialistic. :P It's just for the sake of imagination, honest. :)

One day I’ll be the pretty girl,

The type that hot guys lust after;

One day I’ll be Ms. Popular,

Ensconced in love and laughter.

One day I’ll wear designer clothes,

And sexy shoes to match;

One day I’ll travel all the time,

Oh so difficult to catch.

One day I’ll ride a BMW,

Black and chic and chauffeured;

One day I’ll be jet-setting,

At last, a free bird.

One day I’ll use the latest Apple gadgets,

And snazzy N-series phones;

One day my Facebook uploads

Will generate comments storms.

One day I’ll own a diamond watch,

And limited edition Chanel bags.

One day I’ll be writing

For all the top fashion mags.

One day he’ll be the one calling

To ask me for a date.

One day I’ll turn him down,

He’ll be too bloody late.

One day I’ll be committed

To the one who’s made for me.

One day I’ll finally be satisfied,

Content to simply be.

While writing that, somehow, a few Hindi thoughts were popping into my head, which is how I came up with a sort of couplet/shayri in Hindi along the same theme. Please don't laugh. I don't usually write in Hindi, so this is quite rough:

Ek din hongi khushiyan hi khushiyan,

Na dard, na dukh, bas aaram.

Ek din sajengi mehfilein

Sirf humare naam.

Ek din milenge hum unse

Jo banne hai bas humare liye;

Ek din hoga ehsaas ke haan,

haseen zindagi hum bhi hai jeeye.

I said DON'T LAUGH. :P
