Eager eyes search the deepening sky for that first star. A star to place a wish upon, maybe three or at times a surreptitious four that poured out of a young girls heart.
As years passed Saturday evenings saw joys and sorrows, stresses and strain that life brought her way.
Evenings that passed in study, or giddy excitement of dressing up for a Saturday night out in town. Meeting her best friend for a quiet chat that would stretch on in high spirits untill Sunday dawns. Evenings sitting out by a poolside, an anxious mother watch as her child learn to swim or attempt a game. Secret evenings tucked away in the folds of memory to be reached out and relived when the music dies.
So it's another Saturday evening. She sits out watching the sunset as the birds fly home to nest and Bats to hunt.
Her eyes search out the first evening star. A Star to place a wish upon. Everything has changed still nothing has as she closes her eyes to make a wish...maybe three and yes even the surreptitious four pour out of a woman's heart.
