"Stars are made for wishing on" My very best friend told me So I gazed upon an October
night's sky And I picked the brightest star I could see
I named my star Karen A very special name Now that
this star had a title She was all mine to claim
I thought about what I wanted Something that I could wish for But
as I thought about my wish I realized Into this process should go much more
Karen should know my thoughts Behind
each and every wish So before I made my wish that night I told to Karen this
I could wish for money Because
my family is very poor However to be rich, money is not a necessity A person needs so very much more
I could
wish for that special boy to like me And say those three little words But love is a much more sacred link That comes
on a path with thousands of curves
I could wish to be famous To be someone other than myself But self worth is
measured by much more than Having the most trophies on your shelf
Instead I want to be rich in spirit Sound in
soul and mind I wish that when I see the pot at the end of the rainbow Character is what I will find
Instead
I wish for understanding And courage in matters of love I pray I'll meet the special someone And through tough times
we will rise above
Most of all I wish for the ability to know and like Who I am and what I have become to be And
I ask that you help me realize That I am special even if that's not what I always see
I thanked Karen for listening
to My wishes and my dreams And there she is shinning bright No matter how dark it seems
Karen listens to all
I say Even though she live in a world so far But no matter where either of us end up living She will always be my
