Consideration

Once upon a little star*
I sat there waiting

if perchance you needed help,
some explanation.

Once upon an asterisk
I spoke in latin,

clarified confusing thoughts
or consternation.

*asterisk: 'a little star'

(8 lines: 7/5/7/5)

Choose any word to use in your poem, AND also include the listed meaning.

Two Latin words for a star or constellation: 'aster' and 'sidus'. They glimmer across English:

disaster: an ill-starred event.
asterisk: a little star.
astronaut: a star-sailor.
consider: to observe the stars.
desire: to wish upon a star.
