Celestial Heaven.
December 5, 2013
Stars in celestial heaven are the glitter of the world,
Shining down on Earth in constellations swirls,
They are the sparkling dust that blesses the blue-black sky,
Reflecting in a child’s irises to make a twinkle in their eye,
A handful of fairy dust thrown into the night,
A safeguard to a traveler or a sailor caught in plight,
Over the years they’ve been reduced to burning balls of gas,
But they will forever mean to me, always more than that,
Stars in celestial heaven are the glitter of the world,
Gracing people’s hearts with their constellation swirls.
