Stars Of This Earth Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Stars of this earth
Are you and me everywhere
We became stars at birth
To give our roots here and there
Love is easy for the heart
And keeps you fit everyday
It fills your seed with a start
And shows you the stream of the way

Stars are born for the living
To make their roots come through
In their heart they are giving
Life of the river that is you
Summer and winter is glowing
In every dark rising cloud
Each their drifting showing
To the streets on going crowd

Stars of this earth
Shine in with their blessing
Every gleam in brightly worth
When their rays are caressing
A stranger is nowhere around
Only a friend with to live
Gems of the stars are there found
With every heart of gold to give

~*~

(Like the eyes of children glitter
Their fingers reach out there to
Away from a world that’s bitter
With smiles they bring on to you

To catch a glimpse of their dream
You need to be just like them
A youth in a freshness stream
Without a worry or mayhem)
