Celestial Sparkle



Reach for the stars
Even if you can't grab one
If but for a brief moment
To hold the most stunning light ever beheld.

To be able to see
Even in the darkest times
As clearly as if it were day
From a light more radiant than any

A guide, if you will
To illuminate the path forward
And cast a beam of comfort
Even when a pebble enters your boot

Shine on, you nova of gas you!
Stay ever just out of reach
For people to grasp out of the night,
Plucked like a grape at the grocery
