Snowflake Wishes

~ still no snow at the beach ~

I hung my hope upon a star

in skies of midnight blue

As winter rose and snowflakes fell

the star, my wish, it flew!

 

Lie still, lie still, my hopeful heart

as the sky began to glow

in flecks of light, so pure and white

Lie still, but let it snow

 

I dreamt a dream so full of hope

where a wish, it came true

I woke to a white wonderland

The star, my wish, it grew!

So lovely, MsJewel. We must never give up on a dream or desire we hold dear. For to give up on it is, in a sense, to cease living and to cease feeling fully alive. Very, very well done, my friend. And I hope to post something this weekend. I've been a slacker as of late:)

[MsJewel]

Thanks so much Rebecca. Happy New Year! :) Julie

[Rebecca Buller]

I guess this proves how powerful our wishes can be :) I also love the title of this piece, I fell in love with it even before I read it. This reminded me of how some kids wish for everyday to be Christmas, so they keep wishing and hoping that tomorrow they will wake up to a load of presents under the tree, yet wake up to just a normal day. Until Christmas actually does arrive, they are so thankful that their wishing had paid off and they got whatever gifts they asked for.
