-inspired By Magestic Impowering Words

In lovely riddles you speak of Goddesses, 
those held above the world. 
For each of us I feel you would find a way,
to bring us back a star. 
Glowing bright, 
you would pass that orb into our gentle hands, 
to grow as children would 
above the falty of man. 
You speak in lovely riddles 
and forget to include yourself, 
for if we are such Goddesses, 
you must be a God yourself.

Jay, if a God could give you, and the others, this gift,nay, this tribute of steadfast love in star, then this God would become the Architect of everlasting life above - No more noble an objective would a Creator pine to satisfy - your love is sweet as spirit - " You would pass that orb into our gentle hands..." What God could reject such caress? With Respect - J.A.B.
