Star

I scarce could see the rainbow's hue Through teardrops in my eyes Nor hear the skylark singing sweet In soft and sapphire skies O heavy was my heart, as then All hope seemed cast away - Upon the windows of my soul The light no more did play But still there seemed a gentle glow In distant reaches set As there a lone star shone above To herald fortune yet I pondered thus upon the scene All fixed before my sight An awesome feeling stirred within - Such wonder and delight How could this star yet move me so To set my soul aflame - Why should it ever steal the void And reap all heav'n's acclaim (There be a tale from ages passed Of such a star, so fine, Which then, ‘tis said, resplendent shone Upon the land, divine) What story do you deem to tell What secrets do you hold - To render hope, are you set there, And all true dreams unfold O star that gleams beyond, above, On high for all to see Bestow your grace across the world Upon humanity ----------- MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL AND THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR YOUR VALUED SUPPORT THROUGH 2012 - Val :)
