Be A Star
~*Marge Tindal*~

Be who you want to be
Be who you are
Be a diamond
Be a star
Light up the night
In the heart of your delight
Might get it right
Be a star
Be a diamond
Be who you are
Be who you want to be

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Ah, Disney, Tinkerbelle...all good dreams to come true...when you wish upon a star, makes no matter who you are...

Love you Marge!

Marge, I love the thoughts in this, and have just sent it to my daughter, an aspiring actress.     I like the use of chiasm in this, too.  You amaze me with the constant new ways of doing things you come up with.

To love another person is to see the face of God.

Pegasus~
Thanks so very much for the read.

Karilea~
Yeah !  Love ya' too !

KCS~
THANK YOU so much for mentioning that.
The first two verses fell so naturally
to the page and then I played with
it to achieve the effect of the intersecting
to give it that chiasmatic effect !
I'm just so pleased to know that someone
else thought it was worth the effort.
You just made my day !

Marge; you shine through out this lovely poem. I love the theme of self acceptance.

Belief is a truth held in the mind; faith is a fire in the heart.

Marge,

Great poem. I'd be surprised if I don't see this as an e card in my mailbox in the next few days.   A very good friend, actually two of them from Corner Pub are always telling me this. Thank you also for all your encouragement of my writings.

Marge your a star

Life has got to chnage,
Nothing stays the same,
Soon it will be time,
For me to move on.

I am caught in a meteor shower of stars !
Such friends who shine - cannot keep their light hidden.

Excellent reminder to us all.  We can be anything we want to be if we set our minds on it and work hard.
