Once I glimpsed another world,
gilded streams of light unfurled,
incandescent trails of wonder

amongst the others in the night,
a sight so blessed, as by my eye
your star now rests in symmetry.

and leave me with a broken heart.

when life is tough. If you're depressed
go for a walk, breathe in fresh air;
talk to a friend you know will care;

in Summer Poems

when holidays went on forever,
clear blue skies were lit with gold.
