As a Child

 

As a child

Gazing out my window

In the blue black of night

I regarded you

 

You were all… white lights

And royal navy sky

Champagne flutes

And sparkles

 

As a child

You held brilliance In your hand

Peals of laughter

A vision of grandeur

 

If only I could wipe
those stars from my eyes
If only I could remain

… As a child
