"Twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are...." you are my falling star- my hint of something miraclous and as you blaze past me I catch a handful of your dust- bejeweled and sparkled- everything about you makes me shine so let me sing my song and wish a wish on you and we'll see...we'll see if it comes true- "Starlight, star bright, First star I see tonight, I wish I may, I wish I might, Have the wish I wish tonight." ------------------ And I thought: this is how poetry is born. It comes from invisible heights, it is secret and dark in its origins, solitary and fragrant, and like the river it will assimilate whatever falls in its current; it will seek a route between the mountains, and its crystalline song will ripple through the meadows."- Pablo Neruda |

I didn't have time to read this one, but now that you pointed it out to me, I feel very fortunate. This is one I should not miss out on, or any of yours particularly. You are a very gifted writer. By the way where did you get that quote from, at the bottom of your comments? |
