As I look up to the sky
wishing upon a star
I look to the brightest
and I know just where you are
~~
You haven't travelled to far from me
Just a twinkle or two away
Everytime I look to the sky
I find you begging me to stay
~~
You twinkle once and then some more
Then I'm hypnotised
For you have cast a lovely spell
That sparkles in my eyes
~~
So every night when I look to the sky
I know that you'll be there
For I know that I'm not alone
Because the night sky is what we share
~~

that have never been touched.
There are places inside our hearts -
that need to be loved this much.

beautifully written Tracie ...
~~~
Tonight I'll send one to the skies
it won't be near so great
You'll have to squint and look real hard
it could take any shape
In case you miss it
don't despair
it only weighs an ounce
It may not reach a human eye
but it's the thought that counts

I know that you'll be there

..lovely!

Tracie,

This was excellent my friend.  Sigh, what a beautiful way to view the night sky.  Those stars twinkle and shine so bright.  Great writing my friend.

As I look up to the sky
And see the stars shining bright
I think of the ones I saw in your eyes
When we first held each other that night


Sorry, this made me think of a very special night with a very special lady  (sigh)
