The Stars Beneath Us


 - a new poem about human connections, as we unite together in dark times


“Stars Beneath the Sky”


I look out across the mountains,

Into the valley below,

Seeing lights both near and far,

Shining colors like the stars,

Shining life into the night.


Each one a gathering,

Around which gather souls,

For light brings hope and inspires,

Since long ago when they were fires,

Bringing warmth beneath the stars.


In the distance the lights are moving,

Traveling on roads and highways,

They are going to and fro,

Where they head I do not know,

Lives connecting with lives.


Around each light I feel the stories,

Each life a tale with connection,

Breathing in a tapestry of lives,

With passion each heart thrives,

Affecting many they do not know.


Above our heads around the stars,

Souls of the past gather and share,

Telling tales around those fires,

Looking down to what they inspired,

Sharing our time outside of time.
