I've heard the stars sing on the crystal wind,
That drifts bejeweled snow in winter deep.
What icy choirs sing they can't rescind,
It lives on in my dreams when I'm asleep.
Awake I cannot hear the starlight air,
Nor seek for solemn silence in the skies.
Yet, when I'm touched by those who love to share,
I see the psalm of stillness in their eyes.
I wish that I could sing the melodies,
The lullabies, and carols of the sky;
To teach these wondrous siren songs, and please,
Touch others with such beauty they would cry.
I wish to fly, to bring my friends along,
And teach them all to sing the starlight song.

Silence is the siren song of my heart.
