Today's word is "velleity" ... vuh-LEE-i-tee ... a mere wish, unaccompanied by an effort to obtain it; volition in its weakest form. (Dictionary.com)
Will
Wanting. Not having.
Like a beggar without a horse.
Though all the shiny, pretty things,
are close enough to touch,
This golden road to having,
is not paved with wishes.
For velleity brings nothing
in its wake but disappointment
laced with envy.
But those who by gratitude
embrace their world will find
everything therein complete.
