With the captivating brilliance
of the beauty in your eyes
Billions of stars in the heavens
shine valiantly every night
The compass of my unguided life
would forever be thrust awry
If I was to never again
behold such a lovely sight

At times when I gaze upward
into the deep ocean of black
I may witness a shooting star
racing the sky with all it's glory
Though it remains expressionless
knowing it's days are numbered
A sense of sadness falls upon me
to see it tell it's final story

Shooting stars can somehow relate
to feelings of love here on earth
I always hang my head with grief
when fate calls upon them to depart
Knowing they have left an impression
in the time they have spent up high
For their ever majestic presence
has left a defining impact on my heart

When God decided to create you
he made the most brilliant star of all
You shine brighter than the others
through such an ever loving soul
Whenever I begin to miss you my angel
all I have to do is look at the sky
The honor and grace that you portray
will shine forever and make me whole

Staring into the sun just makes you blind to what beauty actually exists in the sky.

Paul darling boy oh my goodness this is utterly utterly superb writing. The brilliance of the stars are echoed in this beautiful poem. It flows so smoothly, its form is utterly utterly wonderful and Oh how fresh and vibrant it is.

I love this utterly well written
  

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the eathquake wind and fire
Oh

Wow, thanx a lot Marsha! You are way too kind
to me, and I do appreciate all of your kind
words. I wrote this for my girlfriend that
is living out of town until the end of the year, and gave it to her the day she left
(my nickname for her is My Star). You are
so beautiful Marsha!

Thanx a lot Magnus for saying I have talent,
I am intrigued myself at your level of
talent also. I did immensely enjoy writing
this poem, I had to do a lot of thinking to
get it just right.

Thank you Zinsser, I do enjoy cosmic endeavors myself, the stars have fascinated
me since I was a young boy.
