Shooting star = a small meteor (= a piece of rock in outer space) that travels very fast and burns with a bright light as it enters the earth’s atmosphere.
August is the month of shooting stars and making lasting wishes in the light of their ephemeral falls.
When was the last time you saw a really big shooting star? I wouldn’t dare ask about your wish…
I usually organise shooting stars parties and I watch and wait for their glamorous waltz above the heat of the night…
