Poem
When life throws shades of gray and darkness hides the day... When rain seems to make me oh, not gay for it wilts my blooms to decay~ When wild winds blow my gateway and take all my darling buds away... I bow my head and pray and look up to my star far away~ So very far but never fades away. Yes, it never fades away for it is brighter than Sirius and more beautiful than Betelgeuse as it never ceases to shine even at day. Troubles may come along the byway~ but I will not go astray for at the end of my everyday I am still proud to say~ amongst a million stars light-years away there is that star that bears my name and shines only for me. But, oh, today as I begin my way~ midst autumn auburn trees, I see a star carved in the bark of a tree with my name embossed on it. I look up to the sky but I don't see my star. In wonder, I cast a passing glance at the golden morn that surrounds me; As shining rays descend like gossamer of starlights, the shy birds begin to sing in unison with dancing trees that hum a tune~ there I see you illuminating in sunlight holding a necklace with a star pendant and I see my glittering name on it. Now, as you come closer to me and hang that jewel on my neck I close my eyes ~ galaxies in silence hail! as you take me back to your constellation. November 11, 2020 There is a star with my name on it Contest Judged: 11/12/2020 8:33:00 AM Sponsored by: Silent One 2nd place Entered for " All Yours ( April 9) Poetry Contest Sponsored by Brian Strand
