MEHTA-PHYSICAL DREAMS

find your way by the moonlight

~Huzefa Mehta

I want …………

to learn how to cartwheel

to have coffee with an Israeli -- in Damascus

to stand on top of the world and see how close the sky is

to start a company which puts the oil industry out of business

to read and understand Shakespeare

to be in my kids dreams and they to be in mine

to swim the English Channel in 14hrs

to play soccer with the kids in Al-Sadr city, Baghdad

to travel for a year with my brother

to see penguins migrate

to understand what dolphins talk

to get lost diving with Reena in the underwater coral gardens off Belize as we had once a long time ago

to understand Control Systems theory

to learn how to dance

my friends and family to be around me when I die

to participate in the International Math Olympiad and get one problem right

to ski in Aspen under the full moon with Reena

to learn how to sing

to win a lottery

to teach my brother how to swim AGAIN

to always share my dreams with my family and friends

to speak Spanish fluently

to sail the outer Antilles with my family

to read all the books in our house

to learn how to play the Djembe

my kids to take ahead whats good about our humanity and leave behind that’s bad

my brother to hold my pinky finger as we crossed the traffic lights opposite Metro

to teach on a Fullbright scholarship with Reena when we are past 60

to volunteer in the Peace Corps with Reena when we past 70

to sleep on a ledge on a multi-pitched climb on El Capitan

to learn how to paint

to dig and strike gold
