In the End

Then the traveler in the dark Thanks you for your tiny spark, How could he see where to go, If you did not twinkle so? A verse from Jane Taylor’s Twinkle Twinkle Little Star IN THE END in the end we all drown like a star in the deep caught up by God almighty the day is short alive is the night sky an inkling of who we’ve lost 8/5/2021

I told my daughter when she was young though she never met my father before he passed long before her birth. But if she ever wanted to know what he was like just take the most open and clear night pick out the brightest twinkling star. That was him looking down upon us no matter where on Earth we are! I do so love when I wander into people's older writings this one is extremely touching! Thank you for writing this. With somber reverence A.S.

Honest to God, Kim. 'It's' happened yet again: I was just going to write you about Carolyn Devonshire's tragic passing, when I turned to this poem to view it... This is sending chills down my spine, as this has got to be about the 4th time already that something just like this has happened... At any rate, may we all be comforted. ~ Trembling, gw
