***Star's Love***

A long time ago there was a fair maiden, her name was Star. She loved to stargaze out her tower window.

She believed that the stars were loved ones watching over us ~
She believed that when a star burnt out it meant that soul went to heaven,
And if it fell to the ground it meant they didn't make it to heaven.
She would say a special prayer for those who fell.



One night while gazing at the stars she happened to glance down along the edge of the forest.
She noticed a handsome man watching her; she smiled and waved. The handsome man, unsure of himself,
backed up and looked around to see if it was he she was waving to. When he realized it was, he smiled wide,
turned around and whistled the whole way home.

Star was confused on if she had done something wrong for him to disappear without a hello.
Over the next few weeks, Star would glance to the edge of the woods in hopes of this handsome mans return.
But he did not.

One day while walking in the forest, she happened to come upon the handsome man she had seen weeks earlier.
For fear of making him walk away again, she decided to sit and watch him from afar. She thought to herself how handsome and strong he looks.
She finally decided to let him see a glimpse of her, so she made some noise.
When he looked over and saw her, his face was in awe of her beauty by sunshine.
She smiled widely and ran away, all the way back to her castle.

A few days had passed, and as she gazed, she wished the handsome young man from days earlier would appear from the woods.
She noticed out of the forest appeared the handsome young man. She smiled and softly spoke, "Who goes there"?
He looked up at her and said, "Tular". "My Lady". "Tular". And she spoke, "I am Star".
For a brief second there was silence as Star and Tular gazed at the stars.
Star glanced down at Tular a realized the stars were shining in his eyes.
As he looked up at Star he felt the same.
Star told Tular, "Aren't they beautiful"? "Yes they are". "You know, I have been admiring you from afar, Star,
for months, and wondering as I gaze, if I share and see the same beauty as you."

"Star, I must go now but would love to meet you again tomorrow to view the stars again".
"Oh yes Tular, I would so much love that".

For the next few months they gazed every night until one night Tular asked for Stars hand in marriage, which, I might add, she accepted so happily.
They decided to get married under the stars that brought them together and gazed happily ever after.
