The Starlight Song

Watercolor collages by Ilsa Pinkson-Burke

One fine sunny day I was driving in my car and I heard a scientist talking on my car radio. He said “We are made of starlight brought to life.” I looked outside the window and right before my eyes there was sunlight pouring down onto Mother Earth to feed life. All of a sudden words to a song started coming into my mind. I pulled over to the side of the road to be safe and wrote down what I was hearing. I came home and picked up my guitar to sing the words and let the song come through.

Next came the Starlight Song Storybook that shares the words along with drawings and pictures. The message from the stars is that we are all amazing beings of light here on Earth to Live Love Now with our family, our friends, the birds, the trees, the ocean, the butterflies and with everybody.

I know you will be doing your part to shine more light, love and kindness into the world so

LOVE, tom

Play The Starlight Song!

Follow the story and lyrics of a song about the solar wisdom that call us to polish up our stardust to shine our Love-Light everyday in every way.

We are stardust brought to
earth
we are stardust brought to
birth
we are stardust brought to
life
to shine, shine, shine.

Do you know why you are here?
filled with light and love so dear
Do you know why you are here?
to shine, shine, shine.

Polish up the light you are
come so far, from a star
polish up the light you are
to shine, shine, shine.

How to polish a star so bright
hold it up into the light
no more fussing no more fight
you hold it up to the light

Shine on into darkness
shine on into night
shine on when its cloudy
shine with all your might.

It’s all about the wisdom
that lives in you and me
doesn’t cost a penny
its absolutely free!

When you get its message
there’s no place left for fear
we are all together
together
all right here

Thank stardust for its message
thank stars for sending it through
a gift from the cosmos
straight to me and you

It’s a gift to remember
it’s a gift to see the truth
stardust is our life-force
it gives you a big boost.

What blocks you from shining?
is it judgment, fear or shame
whatever clogs your pipes
give it a name.

Look it in the eye
then let it go
play a new game
with stardust as your claim.

Your light is needed
in today’s stressful world
the star that you came from
shines from afar.
Sending you strength
to remember who you are.

The dust of you is magic
Let it flow and grow
The stardust you are made of
just wants to know
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
then let it go
Let’s go!

Today is for shining
it’s all up to you
today is the day you’re given
to bring your light through

Growing light of love
growing love of light
growing light of love
will help you through the night
growing light of love
will help you to see
deep down inside

Let it shine,
let it shine,
let it shine!
Open your heart and be kind

Right now is always the best time.
So let it shine,
let it shine,
let it shine!
