Stolen Illumination of the Star 2

In the dark of night, A star was shining bright, A guiding light to all, A beacon through the fall. But one fateful night, The star was out of sight, For a thief had come to steal, The light that made us feel. No longer could we see, The path that lay ahead, Without the stolen star, We felt lost, alone, and dead. But hope was not yet lost, For we knew we could rebuild, The stolen illumination, And once again be filled. So we searched the night, And worked with all our might, To bring back the light, And banish the thief from sight. And when the star returned, Our hearts with joy burned, For the stolen illumination, Was now ours to reclaim. So, let this be a lesson, To all who may stray, The light of a star, Is something to keep, not take away.
