Wishing on Stars

Posted on March 11, 2021 by Penny Wilson Writes

We wished on the stars

A cosmic canopy
for our dreams

The Milky Way
poured down
crystalline starlight
illuminating 
our amorous play

The man in 
the moon blushing

as each was 
swept away
in the starry universe
of the other's eyes
