I'm sitting
on the porch swing,
thinking of how
Jackson and I
used to
sit and swing together.
The stars are duller
than an old pocketknife.
They used to sparkle
like five-carat diamonds.
I wonder,
is heaven
up in the stars?
Beyond the stars?
Can Jackson see them
like I see them?
Is he wishing
like I'm wishing?
"Star light, star bright," He said the first time
we sat here together.
"Make my wish come true tonight," I said.
"That's not how it goes."
"Why drag it out?" I asked.
He laughed. "So, what's your wish?"
"That time would stop,
so we could stay like this forever."
"Tough wish," He said.
"What about you?" I asked.
"Let's see.
I'm hungry.
How about a cheeseburger?"
"How romantic," I told him.
"Change your wish to a chocolate shake and we're set."
We went to In-N-Out Burger after that.
He got his wish.
I didn't get mine.
