You Are My Star


You Are My Star


for Debra

in celebration of our 36th anniversary


No need

to wish

upon a star


you are

you are

my only star


my light my love

my nightingale

my morning dove


my have my hold

my silver gold

my every poem yet untold


and should we live

another score

I could not love you any more
