Starlight

Starlight.
My new name.
No longer am I "Little One."
Starlight.
Just a little star.
But a little star that shines on the shooting stars passing on by.
Starlight.
Just a little star.
Oftentimes feeling lonely,
oftentimes wishing to shine brighter.
But I'm not meant to flash and die.
I have been declared faithful, my loyalty spoken of.
I am undeserving, but I will continue to send out my light.
I will burn true,
touching the passing stars to send them off with blessing.
My light comes from the Lord.
I will not be dimmed.
Starlight.
One little star.
Needed in this galaxy.
Thank you Lord for naming me.
I might be a little star,
burning, small and steady,
but that is who I am:
Starlight.
