A Star Is Born

Out CAME DUSK dark and new The MOON had risen and took its simple form. Round and round was BEAU. Every HEAVENLY BODY I saw began to act on a silky screen. At TWILIGHT HOUR came the THEME THE birth of a new star. It took its PLACE among the MILKY WAY FAMILY. EVERYTHING I had seen was of beauty, as it were a dream. Every heavenly body within the milky way surrounded ME. This is what I AM. Here is where I belong. Now I HEAR the twinkle of a HARMONIOUS song. The song is my own. HERE IS WHERE I BELONG. I AM THE STAR THAT WAS BORN.

Hello Val, A really nice write here on "A Star is Born." These cosmological themes are always treat to ponder and write about. I guess the upshot is that in the end we are all "Cosmic Dust." (I just happened to write a poem last year by that theme name.) I enjoyed your poem here very much. And -- A "7" it is. Best Always, Gary
