On a clear night I see these diamonds in the sky, some of them are satellites and some are stars, I used to see planes in the sky at night with their flashing lights, but not anymore, they are grounded. This is an ambient write Sally, love Dolly x

There is almost something comforting about wishing upon a star for something you want. Maybe it's the nostalgic feeling from being a kid and wishing on a star. It certainly can be awe inspiring see all the diamonds of distraction as well. Great job.

A beautifully worded poem expressing a dream in a few words. I can imagine the scene and the atmospherics. The picture of the young girl makes a perfect backdrop. Thanks for sharing. Good luck!

Beautiful picture which adds to the meaning of your poem. That kind of starry night could distract anyone's thinking. Would have a lot of wishes with that many stars. Hope you do well with this.

That's also a pretty picture of the girl and the star-studded sky.
A most pleasing total effect.

Hello Sal :)
This is lovely.
The imagery....Wow! Diamond studded velvet - now that's a beautiful night sky if ever I read one!
I enjoy the alliteration in diamond/distracted. I also love the romantic whimsy of your poem.
Good luck in the contest.
Best wishes as always, Debra
