A Star

A star that streaks thru darkened skies, and lights the path for vacant eyes, then touches hell before it dies, to leave behind no last goodbyes. Like tears that fall as heaven cries, when earth proclaims its own demise... Written Sept 24, 2017

Truly stunning Fran - "then touches hell before it dies." "vacant eyes," "earth proclaims its own demise." So original with so many inventive lines. Six lines to ponder! Congratulations on your win. Blessings.
