A foreign name for a flash of hope

- which merely means I turned her into a trope,

To define the term more clearly.

She's the light aiding me to cope.


The most distant of all yet a mere sound

Of her voice makes one spell-bound:

Tell me, calm me, keep twittering.

Your voice's something I can't go around.


I've come to realize her crucial role

In keeping my thoughts away from the North Pole

Of false promises and given-up dreams.

Ceres, keep sparkling on sky that's flushed coal.
