A Star For Mary

If there were a star that I could buy a twinkling star up in the sky, there's but one star so very high shining brightly, do or die To the Holy City, it shows the way the brightest star, it is still this day, I wish I might, I wish I may to own this star to give away I'd place it in sweet Marys hand and wish us to the promised land, to the very spot, where it all began the Heavenly birth, of the Son of Man David, is the name of the star it can be seen from away,afar we could travel there, no-one shall bar to pray beneath, that Holy star But, I don't have to buy that star you see because David's there for her and me, for with our Lord we'll always be the gift, a star for her from me. This is for Linda Maries ( Sweethearts) contest

Hey old man, I have not heard from you in a while... In poetry or on the phone.... Although I have yet to meet Mary in person you have given me and everyone else who reads this insight into the kind of love the two of you share... I certainly hope you can maintain it for the remainder of your lives.... I am so glad to hear that you have finally captured your star..... Until next time pops.....:JP]
