Chance of Stars Colliding

Not enough words in one lifetime could say,

And yet, no words are needed.

Forecasts said, “Chance of stars colliding,”

Though I never believe what I see on the news.

But the meteors just had to fall that way,

And the showers of iron and iridium dust

Sprinkled the night with precious gems,

And peace and bliss in that one lifetime,

And that one night...
