Stars


Stars

By May Kwek

Each night I stand at my window
Looking for the stars
Those sparkles of dreams and of fire!
So close yet so far

In the scattered night they smile at me
In playfulness they wave
Out of the inky blackness
At once solemn and grave

Yet the night has no power
Over these points of light
Scattered and hidden maybe
But they shine ever so bright

Oh dear stars twinkling in the night
Shine on as hope’s beacon light!
For if you can shine in depths so dark
Then I too, can take heart

For in your twinkling lights I finally see
Why the sky is dotted with memory
For when night comes, and it must
We must have a light in which we trust
