1181. For Sylvia - Nelson Sullivan

For Sylvia, a million kisses.

Few are hits: most are misses.

What chance has a superstar

To hear the far-off praises?

She glides in starlight radiance,

A nebula of gravity

Dazzling! points of light condensed

To diamond clarity.

She sparkles in the universe

Aglow with life and wit and mirth

Her levity’s alarming! In short

She’s simply charming. She conquers

Where the strong are won’t

Merely to survive.
