Placed 1st: Four Lines From Any Song Poetry Contest By Joseph May
Form Quatern; Eight syllables per line (hms.com)


 

"Why do stars fall down from the sky?" Oh, they have heard song of your heart Lauding verse of seasons gone by Strumming rhythms, love-passions impart. When dreams evoke notions of glee, Why do stars fall down from the sky? For "just like me, they long to be" Chasing themes of love in your eye. When your smile, Venus and Moon vie, “And starlight in your eyes of blue” Why do stars fall down from the sky? You know it’s true, your love they woo. “Why do birds suddenly appear?” To cheer your soul and soothe your sigh; Deep in your heart, you know my dear, Why do stars fall down from the sky. All four lines from Carpenters’ song: Close to You "Why do stars fall down from the sky?" "Just like me, they long to be" “And starlight in your eyes of blue” “Why do birds suddenly appear?”
