If I could meet a star - challenge 2

If I could meet a star, I simply could choose Balladeer
That greyish man, that scalawag, well known to you all here
But he is hiding all the time, cooking up some stories new
He's reciting them by heart and when I heard, mine skipped a few

If I could meet a star, I simply could choose Duncan boy
That puppy on the porch that gave us so much joy
With simple words he says a lot, he touched my heart each time
But he is probably busy, writing another heartbeat rhyme

If I could meet a star, I simply could choose Queen of rhyme
Elizabeth, that lady dear, who's giving us an awfull good time
Who speaks from heart and even soul about the forest she adores
Who leaves the key in her closed car and didn't wake up from my snores

If I could meet a star, I simply could choose Marge, that dear
But then I'd better emigrate, because she'd hold me there I fear
And when your luggage is too heavy, just ask 'cause she is great
In getting men to help you see, I know of one who took the bait

If I could meet a star, I would choose one from Passions blue
Because they are all stars to me, above I named only a few
When I would write about you all it would just take me till next year
And it would blow Ron's server up and you'll blame me for that I fear

What makes a star? I wouldn't know, unless it is the fame you see
But that is only outer sparkles, a star shines from within for me
Even those who dare not shine, are stars that play their part
If I could meet a star, I simply look at you and close you in my heart


Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

I am sorry but after the first verse I skip do the end of the verse, and then I skipped to the end.

I write torteous prose but I dont understand why a Lady of your quality is doing the same.

Dear Titia, this is so lovely!

And the end is perfect:

What makes a star? I wouldn't know, unless it is the fame you see
But that is only outer sparkles, a star shines from within for me
Even those who dare not shine, are stars that play their part
If I could meet a star, I simply look at you and close you in my heart


Love, Margherita

Hello Dave, being new here I can understand you misunderstood my poem. Watch your email, I'll explain. Just know that I love those people to pieces, they're my bestest friends.

Margherita, thanks dear, you got that right about the end.

Wintertao, thanks, we always like to tease each other

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow
