We'll Be The Stars

We'll Be The Stars

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers
"

...an ethereal high

"

We’ll be the Stars


 *


A full moon

tethers us to sleep

 

Angels fly

through a celestial sky,

and the man in the moon is a fiddler…

 

but we are the stars, my love

             we’ll be the stars.

Thank you so much, Nisreenaa! ...and welcome to my world! ; )
I loved that the Man in the moon is providing the soundtrack to the delightful trek to the heavens Kelly. and on a fiddle - music like that scene in Lady and the Tramp - gorgeous.
Well penned my friend - Im a poet and I didnt know it ... ;p

Thank you, dear Anto!
This is quite beautiful, reminds me of nursery rhymes, vintage love songs and romantic poetry all wrapped up together. Kind of comforting, and something everyone should read before they go to sleep! And I love your decorated stars! :o)

It is because of the stars that warm our nights, and keep darkness at bay, that we may still live and be happy. You are one of those STARs my sweet friend!!

Kelly, How exquisitely penned! I've always found poetry that involves the stars to be soooo romantic and wistful. You knocked yet another one out of the park! The Kelly Scheppers Fan Club (Dan Vavrek, Pres.) is back in full flower. Just beautiful. take care...dan
