Star Picking

She loves to spend her time

Far off from the light

Where she can clearly see

To pick stars from the sky

Puts them in her basket

Where she takes them home

Pastes them on her ceiling

Making constellations of her own

Ok now Mike. We'll have none of that. This is "lovely" . A little fantasizing, perhaps?
