A Starry Eyed Schemer

Floating lanterns of burning wishes dance 
a flickering pulse of prosperity;
Hanging on to hope with such nuance 
they glide on still water delightfully;

Remain peaceful in the throes of defeat,
let nothing ruffle the feathers of dreams;
Regroup and refocus on what’s concrete,
with that passion create artistic screams;

Reach for the core of what lies inside you,
when you hit roadblocks remain in motion;
Dare not flounder do what you need to do,
the secret to tangible? Is action;

Mirror the Khoom Fay with your demeanor,
Fate can’t resist a starry-eyed schemer.
