Song for a Starry Night

`



Let a song rise through your tears,
Let a smile crease your wet cheeks.
Invoke kindness even when pain follows;
Let the bright of morning kiss your lips.


Let this song, its sounds caress
They wipe away the raindrops and
make the echoes flee in the dark of night;
A long day floats away in its melody.


Let sleep, quietly soft, lift you upwards
into the crook of its gentle arms tonight.
Let twinkling stars line your misty dreams.
Set sail on a shimmering crystal sea.

Frederick,

This is a very thought provoking and meditatively contemplative read and elegant piece of Poetry ...

Thanks Marvin. /Frederick.

A really elegant construction and a pleasure to read! The second stanza could use a tad of TLC, though...I really stumbled a few times (particularly when reading aloud).
