Hope in the Stars
What new day must come
On light and string
To guide us through the darkened void
An eternal concentricity
That shows us just a glimpse
Of the here, and the now, and the then
What reason lies beyond those flashes
What sense of what IS, and of what is RIGHT
Is there a chain unbroken
Is there a path unrevealed
Is our purpose beyond the light
Are we forever lost
Or forever connected
To those loved and those lost
I think perhaps it’s both
If hope springs eternal
Then I must borrow from Voltaire
It is beautiful, it is useful and it is sublime
