Wow I can honestly say I really did like this poem, It was different and so captivating =] |
The last line stuck in my mind. I reread it a couple times. What came to mind is how a person, a star in their own right eventually burns out . |
I took this piece literally and figurlurtively. The stars that shine in the sky seldom do burn out. But there will be a day when they cease to sparkle. That will be the day when a world comes to a halt. All our memories will be all we have. The day of Christ's homecoming will be the day when all stars blink then die. We will hopefully see brighter suns and moons and stars in heaven though. An existence on earth is the preliminary towards the finals. We make decisions toward's our future. Every mistake will be counted. But forgiven. We enable ourselves to experience pain. But God can take away our pain. He has the ability and power to let us rise from our troubles. I also sensed a bit of a metaphor. We all die in the end. Someone who is famous and a star to everyone on earth fades into memory. We have advantages. Our society clamors up concoction's. We live so richly. But always there is better. In the eyes we live poorly. The days are filled with smoke filled skies and dirty grounds. In my opinion the star's never fade. For they live on in each of our memories. And a memory that attaches itself to one of us can stay forever. I loved this piece and it really has brightened up my day. |

Interesting write. I must be honest I wasnt sure what to expect with such a title, but you made it original and you also had a really good flow as well. Good job on this. |
