Wish Of Star

~*Marge Tindal*~

She hung so low in morning sky
I touched her with my wishing sigh
Down she fell to sob upon
my shoulder in the early dawn

Why do you not continual rise
across the sky of wish-upon ?
'I am so heavy with wishes I can't fulfill
I need a heart to wish me on'


'Sometimes a little star, you see
carries so many wishes from those
who would suppose she could grant them all
and when a star can't - a star will fall
Shooting across an ebony sky
falling full-of-wishes dying'


I stroked her pale of twinkle
and offered up my heart
She made a wish on me you see
and grew in glowing depart

I heard her whisper soft in ear ~

'Heart bright, heart bright ...
first heart I see at close of night
I wish I may - I wish you might
grant this star an upward flight'


Slow her swell of light grew bright
off she lifted to the coming next night
Winking back to find that I
wished her only - continued fly



~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~

Oh Marge ... I absolutely adored this "uplifting" piece!  Wonderful creativity and imagination, what an inspiring twist to a falling star ... loved this!  

Best wishes,

So, this is where a shooting star comes from...

I always wondered about that...

No words for this Margie girl.  I'm expressionless. Lovely.........

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.
