A Short Time

By: Judy Auclair

In the Heaven's above...
shine
many stars.
Each one tries...
to outshine
the other.
And they are all...
so beautiful.

But...
every once
in a while...
There is one star...
that is
burning
so bright
That no one
can help
but to look
at its beauty.

But...
there is sadness...
to this
beautiful
bright star.
For, the only reason
it can
burn so bright,
Is because
it only burns
for a short
time.

But...
in this short time...
You...
yes, you...
Have loved me...
and made me
burn bright!
