Love Poem: Twinkle, Twinkle

Twinkle, Twinkle

I have a reputation to maintain and a demanding job description. I must twinkle appealingly, enhancing the romantic evening of lovers who gaze at the sky while wishing on ME. How great that makes me feel! Not all those with stars in their eyes remain happy. Those wishes breathed as they gaze at me fail to come true. My heart breaks for them, but there will always be those who find forever love, who will still stargaze when vision is dimmed by age.
