As I walk
This starry night
I look up to see
The points of light
Dwelling place of legends past

Kings and Queens of olden days
Beasts, men, and heroes of an age
When black was black, and white was white
No grey between the wrong or right

In night’s sky they are reborn
Reminders of forgotten times
Steadfast, they are, until the morn
When they are banished by the sun

To hide with the moon
‘Til the next night
When legends return
As Points of light

~To see the world in a grain of sand
And heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.--> Blake~

(big angel hugs) Oh Barbara, this is beautiful, sweet friend, it too is amazing to me how all kinds of civilizations and cultures through all different times in history saw the stars in a whole special way, isn't it a miracle how we get to look at these exact same stars and interpret them through poetry too, yay! (sigh) This is gorgeous, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barbara, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
