I originally wrote this poem on December 22, 2020, in response to reading “Make a Wish to a Star and It Will Come True“, by Carla Milho, a very lovely lady and talented writer from Lisbon, Portugal. I then posted it on my site a few days later, as part of a compilation. And, now…freestanding.
⭐ A light to the east,
After dark
In the sky.
🕊 A dove is released,
And my wish
Came to fly.
🙏 Bound for the heavens,
With trust
In a prayer.
❤️ The woman I love,
With hope
We will share.
