Star Drum
There talks the star drum
with sparkling beats,
with startling dreams
from the odd percussion of destiny
Prophecying of great people,
men of eminence,
women of gold,
once a boy who could
make a soccer ball float in fantasy,
once a girl that twitched
a strict javelin into amazement
There talks the star drum,
hit with the hands of focus,
determination and confidence,
the beats are sparkling,
there talks the star drum,
signs of the awesome gifts within.
