All the Stars Bow Down

All the Stars Bow Down

For Fiona

When my eyes first captured
your face, the light
imprinted my memory;
the Sun turned to cool blue
and all the stars bowed down.

When we touched, our hands
then our lips, unified,
bonded with rose-red kisses,
the Moon stopped in the sky
and all the stars bowed down.

As time and gravity bend our lives
the light will never dim, it shines
more gloriously.
Mercury takes flight,
Venus smiles,
Mars accepts the hand of peace,
the Sun turns to cool blue,
the Moon stops in the sky
and all the stars bow down.
