(To the tune of “The Wishing Song”, With apologies to Jim Henson)

I wish to wear a dress of silk, the color of the sky.
I wish to be a lady fair as any butterfly
I wish I had a magic wand so I could truly be
But most of all I wish that I was someone else but me.

---

Now I can't wear a dress of silk, but I still have the sky
Now I can't be a lady, but there goes a butterfly
Now I don't have a magic wand, but I can truly be
Now most of all I think that I am happy to be me.
I'm happy to be me.

May you all find happiness in the coming year.
