Radiant Gift

Her eyes tell of her deep compassion and love for all. Glistening in beatitude, a gleaming star so divine, Heart beating with passion, deserving everything fine, Upon her celebrated day of birth, I made the call. As I gazed into the Heavens, upon the beauty I saw. My Baby’s face came into mind; I named the sign. She deserves immortalization upon the skies design. I purchased a celestial body from a map on the wall. For her day of blissfulness, I gave her a reflective piece From the firmament of heaven, she will last forever. Now she can gaze upward and feel a loving peace. Her spirit held and guided, with such glorious endeavor. Truly, definitely, she deserves more than this lease. My lover and friend, and her star, will never sever.
