I Wonder?

I wonder if you’re looking,
Into the crisp, clear sky,
Awe-struck and humbled,
By a million points of light.

And I wonder if you’ve picked,
A star that shines so bright,
And made your special wish,
You dream about each night.

But mostly I wonder,
In the deepest corners of my mind,
“Are the dreams you wish for …
Identical to mine?”

 

(Dedicated to my beautiful wife, Jennifer.)
