“One of life's ironies is that when we finally receive attention

“One night on the swing,

I pumped myself higher and higher

and plucked all the stars from the sky,

tucking them one by one

in my pocket,

between the licorice and baseball cards,

until all that remained

was the absolute dark

and the mischievous twinkle

of my eye

to guide me back

to my home.”
Beryl Dov
