The Stars are Waiting

Out of the touch of humanity’s grasp…
Out of the reach of his greed…they shine.
We talk about how they twinkle, but wishes are free to all who present them—the stars ask for nothing in return.
Though the journey is far, millions of wishes move toward their final heavenly destination…
Outward…upward….when will they arrive?
Do they travel at the speed of light or are they instantaneously delivered at mind-warp speed?
Everyone who looks up sees the same sky, yet the views of some are blurred by incessant city lights (they never turn off), while others see a rich array of galaxies beyond their imaginations.
The stars await these billions of wishes that take their nightly flight on the wings of hope.
Some look with tears; others laugh; yet others scream the name of their long-lost love. Others take a good look and then close their eyes to feel the cool wind on their face as they contemplate their requests…
Hoping upon hope that millions are also beholding the glorious light show on display for free.
Make your wishes humanity.
The stars will not wait forever.
