Shooting star
Will you marry me........yes
i lift you ...fly......to saturn....which ring do you want
laughing..you choose the one flowing with ice particles
a flick of the wrist casts my net.. Liquid light shimmers..glimmers on your hand
back in my arms....we trace an arc across the heavens.........below... On earth..they wish upon a star
