Precious Gems

 The moon invites romantic hearts
 To ride moonbeams as kissing starts
 The heavens sewn in gleaming hems
 The stars they shine like precious gems

 From galaxies light years away
 The stars are there, and there to stay
 Adorned like queens in diadems
 The stars they shine like precious gems

 A star was seen, it brightly shone
 A king was born, divine his throne
 From there came many faithful stems
 The stars they shine like precious gems

 Throughout the heavens stars disperse
 The muse of poets find a verse
 Gleaming words in many poems
 The stars they shine like precious gems

Hello Joe, Your word sparkles with such beauty and warmth, like the stars themselves. I love how your imagery of the heavens, the divine birth, and the way you piece it all together is simply captivating. It’s a treasure in itself, shining with meaning. Spring Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
