LITERARY: "Solace Among the Stars" By: Dane Navarro

Classification: Poetry
Theme: Friendship
Synopsis: It is a poem about how two different people met halfway because of the same insights in life, and that it was better to take risks than to regret them.

Zodiac signs in the universe comprised.
Ergo, land and water were parts.
Pair opposed realms, yet the plough lone furrowed symbols collided—
A Pisces who craved to walk;
A Virgo who fancied to swim.
They believed that if nothing ventured, nothing gained.
The diversity of habits has become even, as it seems.
Both met halfway, ere jeopardizing their lives.
The zephyr of the sea, the sound of the shore;
Virgo didn't move but was drowned.
Pisces did likewise yet could not breathe.
Who else would believe,
Because the connection went through—
Both invested in each other's presence.
They both took a risk, but this was offbeat;
A promise that obliged to be granted
That even if the water went warm,
despite the forests getting flames,
They would always come back—
In the halfway of the opposed realms.
