Poem 29 of 35
Starchild
You came to me from a distant world of light,
singing beyond the shadow of a star as I wandered the night.
I see it in your eyes and feel it in your voice,
bound to me though you were given a choice.
Your spirit's radiant glow
holds my hand if I attempt to run or go.
My little blossom, starchild of a dozen trees of might,
cultivating from the sun, with breath to take flight.
I remember now—or perhaps it remains a feeling—
before we were spirits drifting through space without a ceiling.
Written in the pages long before, shipped by He,
and twilight's smile inspired by She.
A loving mother,
with infinite love and luminous light we call Father.
Now a part of that eternal light rests with you,
my dearest star, who loves with her eyes when I'm feeling blue.
Dearest child of my heart, a star bright, yet one eternal round.
I write it for truth, for truth has become sound.
