Wish Upon a Star

Chuga chuga, chuga chuga goes the train
Pitter patter, pitter patter goes the rain but
the pain is voiceless.

Clip clop, clip clop the horses trot
marks time with the pattern of
hip hop, hip hop
contributed by the rabbit.

Back and forth and around
the tire swings - the motion inspires children's laughter
Hysterically holding on for dear life to
the chains supporting their pleasure.

Snip snap, snip snap goes the shears
Tip tap, tip tap goes the tears
falling from his cheeks to
the glass table
below.

Nudging closer
ever closer to
the truth.

Love well and sweet dreams.
