Even Stars

Why they choose to appear at night Why they choose to stand at far height Why they always shine in might Why every star twinkles with every sight Even stars Drop Tears Why their hearts well up, to their eyes Why their minds pulsate with their ties Why their hearts lift all to the skies Why their minds warm all to the highs Even stars Mend Tears

Another wonderful poem about the stars. A 7. But of course the stars are always there, even in the bright light of day. But because of the light we can't see them. However it is a comfort to me to know that they are always there, just waiting for the night to come so it is their time to shine. Blessings, ~~Darlene

They shine more at night because that's when we most need them. Thank you Darlene

Each time a star twinkles it is registering the receipt of a wish. Every shooting star is a wish fulfilled and stars only cry when there is nothing they can do to help. I hope that all your stars are shooting stars. Kind regards, Ian
