A Teaspoon Of Wishes

Serving that teaspoon of wishes bright
luminous, the night has a thousand eyes.
There is something about a wintry night.

That purposeful frost in the air might
bring to life a few dormant excited cries,
serving that teaspoon of wishes bright.

A bit of a nibble without that harsh bite
an idea can turn into the latest franchise.
There is something about a wintry night.

Warming you from the inside despite  
silence sometimes replacing replies,
serving that teaspoon of wishes bright.

Silken sprinkles full of star-flakes excite
instigating a flurry of high pitched cries. 
There is something about a wintry night.

You borrow a little and share that light, 
you’re the talent and all of the supplies. 
Serving that teaspoon of wishes bright,
there is something about a wintry night.
