Stardust

Countless angels’ eyes - silver white -

shimmering down to us by night

blink brightly as they feel bliss

watching Earth’s true lovers kiss.

Sprinkles in each angel’s eyes

fall as dust with her soft sighs.

Countless angels’ eyes - silver white -

shimmering down to us by night.

How fun about your daughter. I'm not seeing progress in my hubbie's work life. It's depressing but life goes on. My only real vacation is Xmas time, though I had last week off for summer!

You just keep churning these gems out don't you? (How you do dat?) I am quite jealous and I order you to cease immediately being such a damn good poet or there will be SERIOUS consequences (Not quite sure what those would be yet) I intend to do one too but I am stuck like a fly on flypaper...
