As the sea took the stars



As the glistening on the pale blue sea
rode the tide to the heavenly shore
And the mountain goats climbed higher to explore the way of freedom they adored
The hikers drew their compass towards each others softest dewey kiss mored
Within their eyes found home in bliss
And the stars opened up their book
for the sleepless night to have one more look
Accross the sky planted like a seed
in a cosmos of colour and melody
As children slept on pillows of cloud
And the saints prayed out aloud, aloud
For the angels to shine but they would never be blind
And the smiles to carry them on the language of air entwined and
filled with love to breath for their God to bare
When the day was done for them there
in eternity so sublimely found, in he.
