Star Light river how beautiful you are <br /> With your unforgettable sunset on the river's edge <br /> The colors of orange, gold, pink and red <br /> Tiny little violets growing here and there <br /> Then the stars come out lighting up the waterfront <br /> Looking like tiny diamonds moving in their very own private dance <br /> The lights of the city add to the glow <br /> There is nothing more beautiful than the river's flow <br /> The river that I have always called Star Light river <br /> If only it could talk I'll bet it could tell us so many secrets <br /> About love and life; I know that I love to sit and take in its beauty <br /> It has such a peace that I enjoy <br /> When I am feeling sad <br /> I feel that it really understands <br /> My very inner thoughts and I am not really alone <br /> What a beautiful friend to have <br /> It never deserts me <br /> It is always there. I love you Star Light river <br /> I promise I will be back to watch your very own private dance <br /> Remembering my stories of love and romance<br /><br />Alma Jean Epps<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/star-light-river/
