A very well-written candlelight poem about the stars shining in the skies like precious jewels but when they're falling from the sky they turn black and darkness will overcome them never to shine again.

-Nice image, JLR.
-An interesting form
and a good topic.
-The imagery and rhyme
are effective as you
describe the stars shining
brightly and "beaming nightly."
-Good examples with the
difference between the gemstones
and "the stars that fall go dark!"
-Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful candlelight piece! The imagery of the stars being diamonds, sapphires and pearls is brilliant. Perfect artwork as well. You put some thought into this creative piece. Great job!

A bit like us really, as the hymn 'Immortal Invisible, God only Wise' says:

'We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
And wither and perish, but nought changeth Thee.'

Lyric by Walter Chalmers Smith (1824-1908) to a traditional Welsh melody.
