I wrote this today when trying to make up little nursery rhymes and songs for a story I'm planning set in a parallel world. I figured it might be useful to develop their culture and make them a bit more real.
The inhabitants of this world believe that everyone has a star watching over them so this is a child's prayer to their star (it later becomes a lullaby as well).
Prayer to a Star
Little star watching from on high,
Amid skies of cobalt blue,
Please keep watching over me,
And I will sing to you.
Even in the dawning day,
I know that you will light my way,
And even if I cannot see,
I know you're watching over me.
Thank you (this part is optional and is not added when sung as a lullaby)
I thought I'd post this and get other people's opinions and see if it needs improving.
Any feedback would be useful. Thanks for reading .
Also, if I think of any more for this story I'll add them to this post and not start a new one .
