We Made a Wish
We watched the colors change the sky,
and stretched our backs against the grass
Each cloud became a butterfly.
as twilight's crimson came to pass.
The heavens turned to splendid glass.
There, beyond the dying sun,
a wish was waiting to be free.
The curtains spread, a star was hung,
so, you pointed to the galaxy,
to give my wish to me.
