Glitter
It seemed the sky fell out in glittering pieces
It poured down in slow motion
these little stripes and stars
My glitter-filled eyes shining to hold them
A sliver ran down my sides pressing into my skin
Causing my spirit to rise from deep within
Settling in nooks and tucked into corners
One even choosing to nestle in my heart!
I see these little sparkles everywhere I go
Even in the dark my bedroom all aglow
I move glittery pieces with my hand like magic
To form a brand new sky, the stars are round now
And the shape of the star is now
beaming like the moon!
