Englemann Oak at Santa Rosa Plateau, my photo.
Early in August, Yoko Ono opened a project in Pasadena. The installation, "Wish Trees", is 21 small crape myrtle trees at the One Colorado mall. Passer-bys are invited to write a wish and tie it to a tree. Ono doesn't plan to read the wishes; she plans to store them in the Imagine Peace Tower of the coast of Iceland. A local reporter and many visitors to the trees have read some of them. Here is a sampling:
I wish for my brother to get off drugs. He is such a good boy and I love him so much.
I wish for health --clean from cancer forever.
I wish I could be smart in school.
I wish for all broken hearts to be mended.
I wish I could fly in the sky.
I wish unicorns were real.
I wish to get laid
I wish that this night could never end.
I wish I had a hot body.
I wish to be the top of the PGA tour pro.
I wish to never git fat again.
I wish tat old town would bring back Hooters.
I wish my mom would let me see Black Knight
I wish that all people would just slow down.
I wish I am getting money.
I wish and hope that my dad is looking down from heaven and that he's proud of me.
I wish for an amazing day.
I wish my boyfriend would start being on time.
I wish I could have made out with the Beatles.
I wish for the mother ship to come.
I wish I have an American Girl Doll.
I wish I had a clue.
It's too late wish.

Is your wish here? What do you wish for?

A wish tree is a wonderful idea. All of my wishes have come true, so I guess I wish that we can take care of our earth so that many generations can still enjoy it.
