Stars that sparkle and shine within the night
Can offer an ethereal sense of hopeful light,
And as the sun also rises after the break of dawn,
The aura within Aurora can inspire people to continue on,
So, strive to be alive to live in such a way
That would honor the present within today,
And know that it is still possible to make amends
Even as the darkness of night descends,
And surrender to the music of the night
As well as the glory of the moon and sun
To develop a compelling personal story
While on the journey to become someone,
And even after all is said and done,
Dare to understand the importance of human hands
Along with the possibility to impact reality
Through the significance of creativity,
And ultimately discover the true meaning
Of what it means to be a human being
