The Light of Stars

The light ripples as night comes and falling forever falling I brush the satin skirts of night, I ease onto the black bed of stars Twirling galaxies ignite on my palms to stretch the universe within my reach a handful of moons a brilliant milky way lies within heavens lost to our eyes Rumors of shooting stars fall in my sight as I turned around It was reflected in all The light splintered and shattered over all tumbling into day I now sleep with eternity Resting in my gaze

Such a lovely 'star' poem, Jayne! The second stanza and the ending stand out above the rest. Should appeal to dreamers and star gazers! // paul
