Wishing Upon A Star

Funny how we can make wishes

To a little old star in the sky.

Wish I may, wish I might-

Never asking why.

 

It was a good story and song,

That I heard long ago.

Many people sang it,

And smiled with a glow.

 

Have the dream I dreamed last night,

Wish I may wish I might-

And the song goes on within my head,

As fresh today as it was that night.

A child's poem that almost every child experiences on a starry night. It stays with us forever and molds how we write poetry.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
