Crickets, stars, and dreams

This post isn’t as random as it seems. You see, a really noisy cricket managed to get in the house tonight and he was (still is, actually) chirping so loudly that I found it difficult to concentrate on my blog post.

So I decided he would be the topic of tonight’s post. I googled “crickets,” in search of an image, but wasn’t drawn to the scientific kind of photographs.

Then I remembered Jiminy Cricket and my blog post was complete! I always loved this song as a little girl…and discovered that I love it just as much today!

Such beautiful lyrics…and sung with such feeling.

When You Wish Upon a Star
When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you.

If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do.

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Their secret longing.

Like a bolt out of the blue
Faith steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true.
