Look How They Shine

Look at the stars how they shine for you and I 
better learn to appreciate them before we die !
See the banquet of beauty God has created 
feast your eyes on it and you will feel elated;

Dappled in light heaven is our Sacred Window 
absorb its secret as if you were a  leaning willow 
Incline your ear and listen for a soulflul whisper 
God has always been a generous tipper; 

Shine baby shine right where you are 
its always more peaceful up close to a star 
Drink the stardust of the moment 
be the rhapsody song of His cajolement 

Look at the stars how they shine for you and I , 
better learn to appreciate them , before you die !
