Go! Weave the starlight
in your hair hanging down.
Run through the forest
past rivers and streams.
Run through the forest
let the stars be your gown.
Gather an armful
of childhood dreams!
Gather an armful
don¡¦t let a one drop!
Bring all to the birch grove
weave them in the trees.
Bring all to the birch grove
hang them each; do not stop.
Weave them in the branches
let each dream hang free
Weave them in the branches
make sure they are tight
for these are your future
each one from the heart.
For these are your future
so starry and bright.
No hunger and illness
no souls torn apart.
No hunger and illness
no bullies or monsters.
No more broken hearts
no battle ground dead.
No more broken hearts
for these sleepy babes.
They weave a bright future
as they lay in their bed.
They weave a bright future
you must be their guides.
Their tomorrows come quickly
their sorrows too soon.
Their tomorrows come quickly
so store up their dreams.
Go! Weave the starlight
and dance down the moon!

average ginaover 19 years agoI am so blown away. I read the words, then I began to read the rhythm. What a beautiful technique of reusing the third line of the previous stanza again. I'm totally amazed. Wow. When I grow up, I wanna write like that! Absolutely excellent!!!
