Once Upon a Falling Star
I watched a falling star as it shot across the sky,
And you can imagine my surprise when it landed quite close by.
Swiftly my feet ran to see,
And what should I find but a tiny seed that glimmered and gleamed.
I took the seed home and planted it beneath my window-sill,
And now I’ve got a tree of dreams that twinkles, and glitters, and gleams,
And every night it sends to me the sweetest of all dreams.
