The silent star

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)

Rhymed
Celestial star
Cell of the sky
How perfect you are
Still by the by
No questions to ask
Just watching us shine
Bright being afar
Cosmic essence so fine
Galactically aged
When will we meet
But in my dreams
And when I pass in my fate
Oh how you please
And you? Do I please?
Such a silent star
Always there
Waiting on a star
