For Ruby – 5 years young
I met a special girl,
Called Ruby,
With her mother’s beautiful
Big blue eyes –
And just a trace of star dust…
I said
“Ruby, why do you want
To go to New York?”
“Because if I go
To New York
Mr. Barritt –
All my dreams
Will come true!”
“Reach for the stars –“
I said,
“Go to New York,
Just know – every dream
You have…
Will not always come true –
But never stop reaching…
Sometimes,
Just sometimes,
A star in your dreams
Will fall…
To live,
And sparkle…
Inside of you”
