As I walk forward,
The sky drops a little.

As I'm compelled to its beauty,
I can't help but to hum a tune,

While twirling around the dark, green, hydrated grass; slowly,
lifting one leg high,
and alternating multiple times.

As I bask in the powerful, energizing light of the night sky, I spread my arms out,
As if they're wings.

I want to fly away,
So I tilt my head up,
And shut my eyes.

Giggling,
Spinning around.

I make my wish,
To just be free in the sky.

I twirl, and I twirl,
Until i'm lighter than I've ever felt.

"Twirl!" I hear a voice in the distance.
"Keep twirling, my dear!"

The sky is calling out to me.

I stop, to catch my breath,
And i look down.

I am no longer on the freshly cut lawn that I was just horsing around on.

I try to move,

But im only flying upward.

I see the glow around me.

I'm my only source of light, besides the stars and the moon.

"Twirl, my dear!"

I hear again.

I grin and twirl, as I fly upward to home.

"I'm coming, my brightest star. I'm coming."
