Far Off Stars

I can feel the light approaching,

Every step finds a new light in front;
A lengthening shadow.

In the core of my heart
I am free of time.

The wind can’t pull me down with loved ones.
‘Cause we have strong roots,
They trail into a picture of heroic past.
All the stars watch us now.
We are circling the world,
As the world circles the sun.
And I hope for the day that I am circled by you.

Our stances have fallen,
But we are still on the road.
We don’t need a radio
We sing and dance to our notes.
We can make all these memories last forever.

Good and powerful words. Good song too.
"We sing and dance to our notes.
We can make all these memories last forever."
In the mess of the world. We must dance and create our new memories too. I liked the drive and the energy of this poem. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
