Analysis of A shining star

Malaka kelebogile 2002 (Dennilton)



Hope is a star,
That shines so bright.
It's a beacon,
A guiding light.

It's a wish,
That never fades.
It's a dream,
That never strays.

It's a prayer,
That never ends.
It's a promise,
That transcends.

Hope is a star,
That lights the way.
It's a blessing,
Each and every day.
