Example
destiny's starway*

the stillness of the night
brings a calm
erasing the sun's illusion...
worry is out of sight
with a psalm
replacing the day's confusion

looking up to the hills
mists divide
providing celestial parting...
I know if heaven wills
I'll reside
in holy lands God is charting

how can I wish for more
when day ends
with Luna to guide my starway...
following as before
night descends
while backdropping heaven?s highway

*starway: path of stars
