To Know harbored in the coming of purple’s twilight ![]() embracing a belief searching for a star ![]() looking for one that outshines all others the first that would shine that night ![]() as the star rose into the heavens the wind rushed searching rushing to whoosh into her ears bringing along the words of the star in a whisper I am yours ![]() green eyes fastened onto the radiant white beam light-years away yet a stretch of slender hand, palm up, held the star aloft with gentlest touch ![]() like a star out of reach love is there, when you know and when you know, then the darkest blue-black of night ![]() will envelope you tuck you in keep you warm safe in the promise ![]() and in that promise, to know there is one, just as the first star is the one that, with a stretch of slender hand, palm up, you might hold the star aloft with gentlest touch brings the smile to know and to believe I am yours ![]() [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 02-27-2001).] |

I am yours- what a good feeling! Beautiful poem. A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes. |
