The Tears of Stars
I marvel at the tears of stars
that loudly blush as they pass Mars
Toward earth they fall in streams of dust
on cosmic winds that swirl and gust
No doubt it seems a madman’s tale
a rotund lie of cosmic scale
I ask you though, with much chagrin
please wake that child that naps within
Though hard to see with grownup eyes
The puerile heart unveils their guise
Near tranquil ponds where sorrow feeds
they land and spark among the reeds
