Poem: The Star

Into the Forest a star fell from the night

To find it we ran like the wind through the trees

Branches they grabbed us bramble tore at my sleeves

On the roots we stumbled I tripped and fell

Then lying before us light silvery blue

Your eyes they sparkled then through the dew

You reached out embracing that distant clear light

I caught your glimmer sparkling bright

Then together we gazed into each other’s sight

Yes, it was love that we found on that deep starry night.

Which came with a flash

Sent from heaven above

To wrap us in magic to give us the love.
