The Lost Boys

If eyesight could pierce the solar bright And humans traveled at the speed of light To be present at the yesteryear's glow Seeing all colors of the rainbow Reaching and touching the right wave In this Elysian, to behold your babe Physically adorn, the child is born Hearing the spring of this precious being This star of love: singing, beaming, blossoming Dear little one, far above, dear little sun Exemplar in the image of the Eternal Empyrean Pursuing the blaze, viewing those first days A blessing, Expressing Choosing, climbing, falling, crawling Dear little star it was not that long ago Just a delight, a sunbeam innocent halo Aging, changing Dear little star who swam, immerse in the rain Ordain and walk under the clouds on the earth’s terrain Then in blink of an eye Time evaporates dry But within an unforeseen storm, this erosion of fear Worn and torn, the lights disappear Once upon a time… The babe, now placed in a grave The candlelight is far and now close A twinkling white star among the cosmos From an echo to a guardian angel If our eyesight could pierce the starlight Dear little one, dear little sun The light will pardon, for the light has won For the night must end Alas the twilight will come Oh, little star, thou wilt ascend Because of the Eternal Sun In remembrance of cuz J. and H. and you to my friend S. ><
