“The night is wonderful” said a Star
As a tiny speck wished on it from afar
The Wish travelled like photons of light
Through the infinite dark, out of sight
It danced over the craters of the Moon
Like an Autumn’s leaf, in a lagoon
From one star to the other, it made its way
Hunting for the sweetest flower, just like a Jay
Over a meteor, it laced along
Following the trail of its Star’s song
Through millions of diamonds twinkling in the sky
It flew with the strength of a hopeful sigh
In a sudden brilliance it was gone
As briskly as it had arisen from the eyes looking on
“The night is wonderful” said the Star
As it caught the Wish from afar
