see me shadow? here I am there I go flying across the sky moving from star to star what am I doing? look in my hands. . . I'm collecting starlight for you starlight to make your face light up starlight to make your eyes glow soft starlight to make your heart feel warm starlight to make your nights less alone this is the gift I bring to you I'm collecting starlight to show my love for you ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person.

This was just great! I loved the visual presentation...like gathering up diamonds of starlight. The whole idea is wonderful/original and beautifully expressed. Jellybean King |

And starlight can, indeed, do all those things, especially when shared this way. This is so refreshing, Sven, innocent, subtle and sweet. Thank you. Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

"catch a falling star and put it in your pocket, never let it fade away...." what a lovely rendition, falling softly down the page.... starlight, indeed!! a beautiful way to shine the Love through.... ... because after all, as some very famous lyricist said... "all you need is Love... Love is all you need".... and he was right, y'know? keep writing it, my friend...... it's a joy to read... |
