What follows is offered in response to Velvet Verbosity's 100 Word Challenge. The challenge, this week, is "Kindle".
Oh far and brightly star, shining so in the dark of night, I so long to be with you, among you and all your kind, for you are home. You are the stuff that made me and you kindle in my heart a deep feeling of familiar.
You have no air I might breathe and your soul searing fires would consume me and spit me out like an ash upon incineration, but I know you, somehow, and your regions hold no fear, for me, for you are my parent.
Oh far and brightly star, bring me home. Amen.
