Thanks From the Unworthy

From a cloudless frost crisp sky one star shines supremely out Diminishing all other stars in the slate black sky about It light s a path across a flat calm bay a road my soul must walk To distant friends in distant lands to whom I wish to talk To those in need I send you gifts of sustenance faith and love To those in terror and in pain, I give hope and a dove Those whose loss turns fair heart black you get leave to grieve You who now face life alone pure friendship you receive As my mind walks that star lit path my thoughts they are with you Who on my unworthy life your great gifts of love did strew Pain from my old frame you shared and my loneliness did cease On you I wish health and happiness, love, luck and peace

gosh, you are such a good person to think to write a poem like this to all those in your life and I suppose to all humanity! I just love this symbol of the "star lit path" you walk. You are not unworthy!
