Starry, starry, starry night,
I lie beneath the glimmering sky
A cloud above; an angel's stare,
Comforting glow; the moon aware.
Starry, starry, starry night,
A country town in peaceful care,
The houses, steeple, Cypress trees,
People of warmth; a valley of dreams.
Starry, starry, starry night,
Tones of colour; a music blend,
Blue and yellow here and there,
My brush and easel; a tender glare.
Starry, starry, starry night,
A journey's end; no shoes to mend,
I don't regret my heart's bequest,
My work is done...perhaps my best.
Starry, starry, starry night,
Uphill is past, I can now rest.
