Giant flashlights in the night sky
Guiding lost wanderers to their homes
Bright, Mysterious, Hope

Gleaming in the dark
Many light years away
Twinkling, Sparkle, Crystal

Hidden behind clouds
Vanished in the night sky
Gleaming, Beautiful, Spectacular

Finding its way to the sky
Gleaming beautifully at night
A Twinkle of Hope

The author's comments:
While on a camping trip one weekend, I gazed into the night sky. I saw hundreds of Gleaming stars. You can only see them when camping, which is sad because they are so pretty. Their sparkles inspired me to write this poem. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did writing it.

&quot;Write what you care about and understand. Writers should never try to outguess the marketplace in search of a salable idea; the simple truth is that all good books will eventually find a publisher if the writer tries hard enough, and a central secret to writing a good book is to write on that people like you will enjoy.&quot;<br /> Richard North Patterson
