a night of stars

'tis a nite of stars;
multitudes, riding the fabric of indigo gown
shining in glib conversation thru' the dreams of dreamers.
words that take eons to form,
stories that take forever to tell....

at the beginning of Forever, in the First Creative Thought,
there were but two glazed stars set in the density of darkness.
thinking to be alone in the Creation,
each star wished for a companion to share the vastness of woven night
and spare the flight of loneliness.

instantaneously,
upon the wings of this simultaneous wish,
both stars became aware each of the other.
singing hopefully across the full expanse of sky,
they began a conversation
giving note for note,
cadenza for cadenza,
in awe of the harmony their voices together created..

as they watched, tasting the sound of their beautiful song,
longing to be closer, each tone they sang together hung brightly in the empty space between.
multitudes shining in the fabric of indigo,
weaving a bridge of soft white light.
the two stars, longing to be closer,
followed this bridge with their thoughts,
their dreams,
their souls –

and in that moment Creation witnessed a miracle..

for in that moment the two stars moved across
the full expanse of sky meeting at the middle of the bridge.
and each tone they sang, each part of themselves they gave
become another star and filled the heavens with music.

to this Nite,

if you could look closely enough at the brightest light in the sky,

you would see – 'tis truly two glazed stars
tasting the sound of their beautiful song....
