The stars tonight
shine so bright,
they burn holes
in our souls,
with the wonder they ignite –
Billions upon billions they are
out there, away so very far,
yet here, touching us all
with their silent singing call,
for the sacred surely does show through, in the brilliance of a star –
Perhaps once again we could learn to see with purity
as the children we long to be,
if only we’d give time to lay out at night
gazing upon this cosmic sight,
just a small glimpse into an empyrean eternity –
