I am looking past the moon. <br /> I am reaching for the stars. <br /> The journey is worth the effort, <br /> The distance is not that far. <br /> I go as far as my body takes me, <br /> My imagination lifts me the rest of the way. <br /> The stars are constant, faithful friends, <br /> Guiding and showing the way. <br /> I've heard it said, <br /> "Stars are the forgot-me-nots of angels", <br /> I know that's where I want to be. <br /> High above the sadness and despair <br /> Upward and onward is my destiny. <br /> Yes, I am reaching for the stars <br /> I even know I will arrive. <br /> For surely with my eyes fixed on the stars <br /> I can definitely reach the sky. <br /> I believe in people <br /> I believe there is a light <br /> a hope, a spark, inside all of us. <br /> It is our obligation to each <br /> to let our light shine. <br /> I believe when every person allows <br /> the light to shine, all our "lights" <br /> will join together and will shine <br /> as bright as the sun.<br /><br />Jodi Davis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/reaching-for-the-stars/
