Like a Diamond in the Sky

"Star light, star bright,

The first star I see tonight,

I wish I may, I wish I might,

Have the wish I wish tonight."

"The first star you see may not me a star."

As a little kid I never made frivolous wishes. I never wanted a new doll or a pony. Sure sometimes I'd wish that I could fly but mostly I'd wish for two things; that I would someday fall in love and world peace.

As immature or naive as you may think it, I still wish on stars. It's okay if the wishes I make will never come true, however realistic they might seem to anyone else. A wonderful friend once told me that it was okay to waste wishes on things that may never come true and those words will never leave me.

Sometimes the first star you see isn't really a star. All too often it's a planet you're seeing. I'd tell you how to tell the difference so that you might know if what you're looking at is a star or planet, but I don't want you to know. I want you to keep the magic inside of yourself instead of worrying about the truth.

But now, what should I do? Wish on the second star instead?
