written after space shuttle Colubmia crashed Seven stars falling from the sky. I could hear lonely eagle cry blue day Columbia never made it home. Mourning song, slow, hauntingly clear. Wings clipped, balding eagle did fear similar fate, weight of freedom�s sacrifice. Seven souls sound hope from on high. We commemorate ties that bind here on earth, remember those severed too soon. Call to endeavor on, explore echoes and sacred harmonies spill down like heaven�s hope, healing hearts on earth.
