Winter Stars Blind

Winter stars blind,

opaque eyes staring

across bright moon snow.

Nights watching ice ballets

of secrets across the meadow

has taken their sight.

They listen to lovers

and respond with twinkles.

Their vision gone

but their soul shining.

Stars join in smiles

whispering to the moon,

"We may not see love,

but we know it is there.
