Blaze the Skies

This journey of my dreams is everything I’ve waited for It’s all wrapped up with strings With sweat and tears, with joy and pain Through hills and valleys I have come A thousand dreams I dared to dream I stand here in this time and place Where stars are born to blaze the skies Blaze the skies with your life We live each day and weave our dreams Each life is a song that must be sung As stars are born to blaze the skies When I recall the years, the many fears, the hidden tears The solid walls unseen The rocky road, the times I fell The yearning grew, the struggles too A million stars have shone their lights Along the way to where I am Where stars are born to blaze the skies Blaze the skies with your life We live each day and weave our dreams Each life is a song that must be sung As stars are born to blaze the skies I’ll soar with touching songs that warm the heart that feed the soul To heights beyond the stars, And light the path for all who dream Who know the laughter and the pain To give each song its wings to fly To a higher place in the universe Where stars are born to blaze the skies 2004

I like this one. There is a really good song lyric in here ala folk rock,( Think Donovan, Don McLean, early Carly Simon, et al.) that I am almost tempted to write the melody myself. The refrain line on the end of each chorus(?) is classic. Regards, Gerard.

Audrey, do you have another one on here about stars? I recently read some other poem here at the soup and it was all about stars shining brightly and it really reminded me of this one, the beautiful repeating lines the cadence of it. Maybe you have a soul twin here! LUv, andrea
