It is all hopelessly subjective. For a little, I thought 'tohu (wa) bohu' as referring back to the Creation, as in Genesis. But then, my old-fashioned traditional self kicked in, and I began to want to smoothe it down, changing the line preceding to 'gold and fiery', and 'twinkle' to 'sparks'.

Of course, stars DO twinkle-- in fact, I am not sure that anything else does, bar for the eyes of a kindly old Irishman, or , supposedly, the eyes of father-to-be. Hey! Liverpool have just scored!!! Big Grin
