Wishes



Wishes
A shooting star passes by
Crossing the lunar moon as it goes
Many small eyes everywhere squeeze tightly
And inside each, a small wish is made

Most small wishes are insignificant
These are meaningless and material
The kind of which will not be granted
A small few go far deeper

The night of the shooting star
A young girl made a deeper wish
She wished for the sadness to go and love to come
That night, as she dreamed, a smile came to her face

Wishes can come true
The girl died that night
Her burden left her, the clouds loved her
Her childhood kindness was rewarded
