Holding a Star
Twinkle, twinkle little star
Why are you so very far?
In the night sky you are grand
I want to hold you in my hand
But you're far off and way up high
And I can't get into the sky
The best that I can ever hope
Is looking through a telescope
When I do you shine so clear
Then it seems you're very near
I wish I may, I wish I might
Hold a real star tonight
I walked along the ocean sand
I slow. I stop. And then I stand
I look down and on the ground
It was like a miracle I found
Lots of stars are right in reach
I gather starfish on the beach
