Soup Apology

I want to apologize to anyone who looked in on a poem I posted last night titled “Erasing every trace”. I began the poem with a stanza from an old childhood poem that when attempting to italicize it, I inadvertently placed an incorrect symbol at the end of the last line which in turn did not allow the poem I wrote that was inspired by the verse to show. 

The verse:

“Star light, star bright,
The first star I see tonight;
I wish I may, I wish I might,
Have the wish I wish tonight”

Was a verse from the 19th-century English poem by Jane Taylor, "The Star".

I apologize for any concern this may have caused.  I have since deleted the post. 

To those who commented on the poem I have already sent PM’s to each of you explaining this

Thank you for understanding,

Chris
