Little Star

And Thee, Little Star,
Dearest to me, I have loved most and greatest of all,
More than all these words unworthy,
or this world unworthy, or all my life itself by far.
Thee, the cherished weight and measure of my soul,
Strength of my body and mind
In hours short, dark, sweet, harsh, or long.
Do, darling, glow and do, O, shine on Little Star,
Light of my heart and brightest in all the livelong sky
And all and all and all
And on and on
