Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
What the stars create in the longing for love

Night Vision

by JLR

At rest with my eyes set on the night sky
I once had a deep tug of how love felt
With the hope that this spark I felt was nigh

From in the dark of night, one star did shine
The bright star lit her body form, so svelte
My heart was ready to erect a shrine

Hours passed by many in the midst of plans
Then in the light of day, the image of her melt
my heart ached, down my cheeks, tears ran.
