stars and honey

I like to keep just a pinch of stars in my pocket 
so that when dusk comes I can light up the world 
and all that once seemed dim 
is now showered in light 

I like to keep a handful of summer rain in my boots 
so that when the drought comes 
I've got a bit of that familiar life bringing nectar 
like honey from my lips
