Rising Star
by Linda L. Dowd

+*+*+*+*+
Onward, skyward,
Up, up, up!
Rising upward,
Drink sky cup.
Major, Minor,
Dipper skies.
Drink in,
Breathe in,
Stars as rise.
+*+*+*+*+


“We are borne of star dust,
and to the stars we shall one day return.”
~ Linda L. Dowd

Wow, dearest Linda Angelo Terrestre, rising star!

This is very beautiful in words and perfectly accompanied with your stunning piece of digital art.

I am a star-sipper for sure you know and within your poem I am totally at ease and happy.

Love you and send hugs.

You are so very talented, my friend.
What lovely artwork...and of course,
all one can do with such beauty is
to look UP!

Linda, I especially enjoy your poetry, I think because your philosophy of life is so similar to my own. Lovely as always.

Love this, Linda.  I often look up and next time I'll try and see what you saw but I know (sigh) that only from your mind such a beautiful sight.  Doesn't stop a gal from trying though!
