A Star For Dane Ann

Stars are but pores in the seams of heaven From which loved ones smile down on us Showing us they are happy, at peace For you, dear Dane Ann, I buy a special star The radiance of a beautiful soul Who walked this Earth with joy and love I give to you the star “Jeanette” A woman like you who lit a spiritual path And gave comfort and friendship willingly Her star will cast blessings on your home The light will lead you through dark times A steadfast ray of hope and inspiration This is what Jeanette gave to me In memory I choose to share her brilliance To guide you on your journey through life *Entry for PD's contest

I'm afraid that I made everything up in "On Emigrating To Iceland After Iraq." But then I often do that in the first draft and then the challenge is to make the poem work even if it is the spawn of the imagination. I spent most of my life as an editor of factual prose. Poetry offers me the chance to say things that I do not know that I am going to say, if that makes any sense.
