Dearest Dimitra,
If I haven`t seen Anamaria at the pop-up, I could miss this great feature!
Actually, you are the first Shining Star I know. So, these congratulations must be special!
I found one poem from Nigerian poet Ma`azy Mohd. Yusif that may fit :
Shining Stars in a Hazy Cloud

My shining stars
I am looking for you
Where are you
Before you departed from the second terminal
Two hundred and forty seven parked in a dark room
You were the only forty-five showing light
You must continue to hold your light
Otherwise there will be a crash
When everything will be demolished
There is too much darkness
When you hold your light firmly
You will be flowing like a river
Moving through the air like aeroplane
You will be blocks nobody can move
You can control them through your missiles
Ah! Bashir Shehu and Abdullahi Shehu Yusuf
Hold the bottom very well
Do not mind the difficulty
Swimming in a river with two many rocks
Colliding but still moving
Do not be frightened
I am holding the mast for you
Showing you the direction
When a shark swallows you
Don’t forget your light
Put it on she will release you
And run away
Yes! They will all run away
Helter skelter
To get a cover
Only to come out with apology
Because you are the light
Some will follow you beating their drums to get followers
To throw sand in your faces
In order to become like them
Do not fear and spare them
Ah! That little brilliant Yahaya Usman
Fighting to see and hold the light too
But was boxed in a corner of darkness
Habaa! Why didn’t your eyes blink towards me
To come and unlock you
Don’t mind
In the third terminal I will help you to resist darkness.
