Love Amongst The Stars

When you give your heart to another
You bathe in the warmth of the sun
You walk tall upon the earth
Tall enough to touch the stars
You make love beneath the moon
And Venus guides your path
As you navigate the Milky Way
But when you are cast aside
You crash back down to earth
And inhabit planet Solitude

Imagine the poem read in the inimitable tones of the late Patrick Moore to fully appreciate its astronomical allusions.
