An Angel Star (or Max's Smile)
Make me a great poet I asked
So that I may tell the story of Max.
He was a mighty angel--
A great being of light
Grounded for a short time
On earth's paradise.
He caught us all unaware
Leaving without farewell
And we cried for him each day
Until our bodies begged for respite.
But a star is twinkling in the night
And it bears Max's smile.
Look to the sky in the dark of night
When the heart is still and light
And you will hear the whispers
Of a great being of light,
And catch the smile of an angel star.
