Make a Wish

You there! 
Standing idly by...
Hurry now! 
Crab your pallet of colors
And your artist brush, 
You must rush...
To paint the sunset! 
Now, wait for the moon...
Wait for the moon.
And should a star appear
Oh, you must catch it, if it falls
And
          Make a wish! 
             Make a wish!
