“O My Stars by Stewart Stafford Sweet stars of my youth I have aged, but you have not As a child, you were the wondrous dreams I aspired to In later life, you were still so bitterly distant Yet always mesmeric in your beauty With awe and gratitude for your companionship If there is another side, you shall be the celestial shore I walk upon With earthly depths beneath Where others see and dream and reach up for you. © Stewart Stafford, 2020.

O My Stars by Stewart Stafford
Sweet stars of my youth
I have aged, but you have not
As a child, you were the wondrous dreams I aspired to
In later life, you were still so bitterly distant
Yet always mesmeric in your beauty
With awe and gratitude for your companionship
If there is another side, you shall be the celestial shore I walk upon
With earthly depths beneath
Where others see and dream and reach up for you.
