Letting Stars Sparkle
Stars shift throughout a weary night
puzzled imperfections again highlighted
by flowing thoughts drowning below
bridges broken with words misspoken
Dreams drift to distant destinations
where trouble's travels are restricted
lost along with an old black tourister
and those daily mundane affairs
Spirits lift with another Antiguan smile
distilling demons to the way side
creating a slanted image of the sky
letting stars sparkle in clouded eyes
Sunrise gifts garner respectful homage
carrying penetrating rays of hope in tow
where a fleeting soul remains holding
on to the last threads of a leaving heart
