Star Bright
Twinkle, twinkle little star,
your light, that I can barely see,
has carved a path from somewhere far,
to travel through the galaxy.
In cobalt seas, your eagerness
has sent your light to touch my face.
Caressing with a tenderness,
until my heart can feel embraced.
Sun passed you by, so brief a glance,
refracted light against the sky.
And soon I have a second chance,
to search for every firefly
Twinkle, twinkle little star,
along with other stars that clone,
your ray of starlight comes so far,
the message clear, precisely honed.
It hurls through space, with news to share.
With constellations telescoped.
They rise up from a heaven's core,
and bring to earth a glimpse of hope
I'll gather up your brilliant hues.
A starlight garden for my view,
and thank you for the promised news.
I'll wait here, 'til the morning dew
