The time has come,
to wish on a star,
to find your place in eternity.

The place in time
to plant your roots
in the soft wet soil of the earth.

The time has come,
to say "I do" and to make vows to God,
Maybe someday,
pick a flower,
throw it into the sky,
and hope one day somone else will find it.

Yet you think back,
to when your parents stood in aw,
because you cooed or maybe said,
"UH OH"
but now if the phone rings, and its you,
a tear runs down their cheek.

The time has come,
to wish on a star,
and to find your place in eternity.

Dedicated to my beloved mother.
