Guardian of Love - Robyn Makaruk

O Jupiter!
I see you shining brightly in the night sky
Beaming down on me
I like to think that you as a father
Might be cradling my father
Who left me sixty-eight years ago.
I can see him as I remember him
Tall, handsome, forever young.
I hope he is still proud of me,
As he was then reading my first school work
Passed through the hospital window.
I have been blessed in this life
Where there have been many who have left 
So I deeply cherish those still here
Who have my heart until I leave
And join you all as stardust.
I know that my guardian of love
Is your daughter, Venus
Soon to make her appearance in the night sky.
