stand close to your window <br />or stand in the open <br />for the stars, the benign stars <br />they want to kiss your sweet self <br /> <br /> <br />the stars want to kiss you <br />for they recognize you; <br />they want to bounce off your hair <br />and sit on your fingernails <br /> <br /> <br />for the stars want to kiss you <br />so lie down in your bed <br />close to your open window <br />or run across the fields - <br />see, do you see? <br />the stars want to embrace you <br />for they recognize you, <br />they know you <br /> <br /> <br />you don’t have to adopt <br />a seductive pose <br />or to have actor lips <br />or dancer hips; <br />still the stars want to kiss you <br />they just want to kiss every inch of you; <br />they just want to be caught in the gloss of each hair; <br />O, so look up at the stars <br />for they want to land softly on your lips; <br />the stars want to kiss you on your cheeks <br />they want to skate on your eyebrows <br />and they want to dance on your chin <br /> <br /> <br />so stand close to your window <br />or stand in the open <br />for the stars, the benign stars <br />they want to kiss your sweet self <br /> <br /> <br />O look up at the stars <br />yielding to them your face of love <br />for they recognize you <br />they want to see your eyes <br />for they know you <br />and as you look up <br />they descend to caress your face gently; <br />and the radiant stars <br />the living stars <br />they kiss you full on your cheeks and lips <br />and they whisper in your ears: <br />Child, Darling Child <br />Sweet Star Child - <br />we’ve found you at last; <br />we’ve found you at last, <br />Darling Star Child <br /> <br /> <br />so stand close to your window <br />or run across the fields in the open <br />for the stars, darling, the stars <br />they recognize you, <br />they know you, <br />they want to kiss you<br /><br />Raj Arumugam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/star-kiss/
