"Dazzling" is such a great word and that you so beautifully used it to write of a star is so befitting of you as a talented poet and the beauty of the stars. I love everything about this Connie! I often stargaze, to centre myself and breathe in the wonderment of those twinkling lights. A joy to read :-) blessings, lynn

Just wonderful Connie, congrats on another worthy winner! Hey did you see my song lyric, your poem inspired it, but I wrote it from a male perspective, a man losing his wife, it's called You were always there for me, I'd like your feedback if you've got time. Thanks John
