Gosh I love the secret image here, the one the reader imagines, that is, all of the stars falling to the earth during the night. Holy moly. Such a short piece to capture such rapture.

i love it when you say 'gosh'

I love the imagery here. I love the imagination it takes to see stars turning into dew drops. The only thing I don't like is the very last word. It seems like a filler word to reach your 17 syllables.

long ago i had an eighty acre spread in Louisiana...at night the sky was electric...come morning, the pastures were covered with sparkling due drops...you would have had to have spent as many years in Cajun Louisiana as me to catch the flavor of this intent...but i surly see your perspective...thank you for your honest appraisal

Thanks for sharing those extra few delightfully visual tidbits . . . in California, we have zero humidity, so dew is rare. I love to see a couple dew drops on my doggie's noses, after they sniff the morning grass awhile *smile*

"catch a falling star and put in your pocket, save it for a rainy day"
