Woven Threads of Life

We wake beneath the spangled stars,
You on Jupiter, Me on Mars,
Linked by just a silken thread,
Who knows which path of life we'll tread,

Misty memories of times long past,
Like grains of sand in an hour glass,
Scars abound from lessons learned,
Pain of life or love that's spurned,

We wake beneath the spangled stars,
You on Jupiter, Me on Mars,
Lets raise a glass to all, bar none,
Friends reunited under one Sun.
