Tethered to a Star

When I was young, I sometimes felt
that I was tethered to a star,
that did not seem to wander far.

I visioned one day I'd be free,
and wonderd of my destiny
with my luck, stuck in some tree.
Still tethered!

I adore the thought of being 'tethered to a star' ....~

Now ... let's see what we can do about that tree~

Soar in blessed starlight, my friend~

I think u r heading toward a higher meaning but I could nt grasp it I think with another stanza u would have completed this, I dont think it is finished...good luck keep writing...elevation is the key

Well MartyJo, perhaps the reason it may not be considered finished is that we believe your star traveled a lot farther then that. Cute write.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Well, thank you all kindly for not snickering at this silly ditty. I was thinking back as usual and remembering when I had just four of the six kiddies, how I was always wondering for the secret of "Up Anchor". I thought I was grounded for ever. But yes, I was active in the community and I was able to focus on other concerns. And I did foster some changes that were important to the community. So It was not all in vain.... I could have done more...famous last words... best to all and thankee..martyjo.

grinning here, martyjo...
"tethered to a star stuck in a tree"

Now that's a great image! I could paint that one I think, as I was an avid tree climber as a child.

MartyJo -- your spirit soars sometimes...I can feel it, so maybe you should say, "sometimes"....(just a light comment...lol). Seriously, very nice poem!
