A warm beam or ray that brings on the day,
if only I could be the sun.

A light so bright that illuminates the night,
if only I could be the moon.

A cluster diamond sparkle that shines creating dark sky designs,
if only I could be the stars.

A water's drip that helps to grow the mother ship,
if only I could be the rain.

A sun, a moon, the stars, the rain,
all things played a role of birth,
if only I could be the . . . . .

That's the joy of being a poet, isn't it? - The chance to be the sun and the moon, shining on fellow travelers...
Thank you for the thoughts!
