Keep Reaching
At first, you may well deem it a bit Bizaar
That the star that you have been reaching
For just rushed past you as a falling Star.
She saw you in the tree holding on so Tightly.
She felt that you were looking sad and Lonely.
But she doesn't know who you Are. This by no
means should cause your dreams to Mar or Scar.
Right now, you look afraid and disappointed.
But I bid you keep moving toward your Destiny,
Because far beyond the distant Canopy, there are
millions of stars Waiting and Stalling just for you
to reach them before they start Falling.
Do not despair if it seems you have missed your star,
Because there's surely one with your name on it with
Ears wide open to hear your Calling. And, whatever you
Do, wherever you go, never cease Seeking and be
forever Reaching for your star.
