Acceptance

I know I can't catch stars
in a magic jar, release
each for wish come true.
I have to settle for stars
in the night sky, opportunities
I don't control or wish for.

  1. I love the image of catching stars in a magic jar!! But true one has to settle for stars in the sky and opportunities.
