I still recall the starry nights
on the beach
When as a child
I'd revel in summer's sweet reach
The cool evening air, a gentle caress
As I'd gaze up above
my heart filled with gladness
~
The dense, twinkling stars
a celestial display
Their names etched in my mind,
from night after day
They were more than mere
balls of gas, far away
They were my good friends
companions to play
~
I'd lie on the rocks
looking up to the sky
Imagining the stars winking
smiling, and sighing
Though the rocks stood still
the stars seemed to dance
As if they were beckoning me
to join in their trance
~
The waves, they would sway
their rhythm so soothing
Gently lulling me
my eyelids soon moving
I'd drift off to sleep
cocooned in their embrace
As if I were a child, back
in my mother's safe place
~
Those summer nights
they hold a special place
Etched in my memory
a cherished grace
The stars, my silent companions
ever so true
Igniting a wonder
that still shines through
~
For in those moments
beneath the vast canopy
I felt a connection, a kinship
so deep and free
The rocks, the waves
the stars up above
All conspiring to fill
my young heart with love
~
I'd imagine the stars
were winking at me
Sharing secrets
their light dancing merrily
As if they were old friends
come to play
Guiding me gently
through the night's sway
~
The clouds would drift by
obscuring their light
But I knew they were there
shining through the night
A constant presence
a reassuring glow
That no matter what
they would always show
~
When the waves lulled me
to sleep's sweet rest
I'd find solace and peace
in their gentle caress
Wrapped in their embrace
like a child in a dream
I'd feel safe and content
in that moment serene
~
Now, as I look back
on those starry-eyed days
I'm filled with a sense of wonder
a heart ablaze
For the stars, they are
more than just celestial light
They are the keepers of memories
shining ever so bright
~
Each twinkling orb
a reminder of times past
When the world was simpler
and my dreams would last
The rocks, the waves
the stars in the sky
They were my companions
my friends, till the end of time
~
Tthough the years have passed
and I've grown and changed
The magic of those nights
it has never been estranged
For the stars, they still shine
their light ever true
Guiding me forward
reminding me of who I once knew
~
I'll continue to gaze
at the starry expanse
Remembering the child
who once danced in their trance
For the stardust memories
they will never fade
They are the threads
that keep my spirit unswayed
~
The rocks may be still
the waves may ebb and flow
But the stars, they will always
be my constant, my glow
A reminder of the wonder
the joy, and the love
That filled those summer nights
beneath the sky above
~

Postscript:
The starry sky in the early summer night brought us back to the carefree days of childhood, when the starry sky on the beach had a special and almost magical temptation. We are immersed in the surprise and tranquility of those lost summer nights, and we have rediscovered the simple happiness that once filled our hearts. The stars, once regarded as faithful partners, are now the eternal guardians of our most precious memories. They dance in the night sky, symbolizing the passage of time and reminding us that the magic of childhood will not disappear. The memory of stardust haunting our hearts is not only a remnant of the past, but also a clue to keep our spirit rooted and our sense of surprise alive. We have opened the door to the source of nostalgia and filled our souls with miracles and magic.
