Rising Star

Had time not been cruel

I’d hitch my rig to your rising star

As you follow your dream.

How high you might soar

In the milky blue skyway

To taste the adrenaline

Of each starlight beam.

 

This is your time to

Brighten the heavens,

To dance among millions and

Try to outshine

Every shimmering sun

Spreading light to her planets

While sipping the nectar

Of sparkling wine.

 

Nothing can tether

Your high-flying spirit.

Grace is your partner

In this silent run.

I’ll stand in your shadow,

Bask in your glory.

My time has passed.

Yours has only begun.
