A Falling Star

Lene' Mumaugh 1961 (Billings, Montana)

Lyric
Twinkling in the dark
The spread of stars
O'er the universe
Way past the glow of Mars

A flash of light
Across the still night sky
Quick, make a wish
You should try

A gift can be found
In the cascading sight
Rippling across a glowing darkness
Believe with all your God-Given might

Dreams come true
By the falling star
That is sparkling tonight
From afar.
