A rising star needs time and space
To gleam, to glow and shine.
Let the world behold, adore, embrace –
Warm memories are mine.
Away from the light
I moved,
So there might
Be more for the world to see.
Alone at night,
I long for the bright
Star who belonged to me.

Shimmering, shining,
Your gilded glow is
Luminescent and coruscating.
Remembering and pining here below,
My star will see me waiting.

Into the skies
A million eyes
Look to you for truth.
While I alone
Have truly known
The brilliance of your youth.



 "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:34

Lovely, Melissa!

 Nail to the mast her holy flag,
Set every threadbare sail-
And give her to the god of storms,
The lightning and the gale!
-Oliver Wendell Holmes
