Blessed by the gifts,
Gather me a falling star,
Pluck them one at a time
To relish in each wish they
Hold within.
I carry a feather found in a travel
A gather
Of dried kindling
Worthy of fire,
Like the flame of a heart
That burns through the night
Where another star is stolen
With good intention,
Gifts amongst friends.
I speak to the sun
The stars
The moon,
Let it be soon
These wishes unfold
Like blankets at night
Thin and soft
To banish the cool of night where needed
Or thrust aside if too warm.
To sleep in this life
And dream all good thoughts
And smiling at each starry night
Un obscured by the foundling clouds
That like to steal dreams,
Let there be the twinkling
Like a smile
Like a friend
To guide us through the days that pass
Far away
Far away,
I gather light and laughter
For you today.
