When Stars are Aligned – A Quadrille

When Stars are Aligned

We lay close on cool sand
counting stars in the velvet sky
Knowing with each magical moment 
we spend together
they align more perfectly
in their shining, twinkling brilliance
Love is born on this night of a thousand wishes
As the celestial show dazzles
