I FEAR NOT THE NIGHT

(for khalid star)



i fear not the night

the soft velvety sheet

enfolds my dearest dreams

where angel and mortal meet



the dazzling sunlight

disguises millions of stars

i long for their tender glitter

and their silver speech



i fear not the night

the darkened doorway

leads to the bridge of Brilliance

to the everlasting Day:



to the Star of stars!

I love the sentiment "where angels and mortals meet", that ethereal state we call dreaming ... Shine on ... The stars themselves have mortality before the "star of stars" Shine on bright light twinkle and twinkle but to the torch bearers shine on ... (hugs)
