Wishing Upon Stars
O stars, your twinkling never changes
with moods or emotions.
That’s why you give people hope
when there is no light
at the end of the tunnel in their lives.
O stars, I wish only one thing from you-
the secret to how you glow
every day and night without a sigh
of dimming.
If you can’t give me the secret,
at least make me a star like you,
to shine on myself, and the world.
