A Love Story

The stars reflect her beauty While competing for her smile Each one thinks her love is their's While filled with blind denial She continues to entice them As each one feels her stare Her love belongs to all of them But none will choose to share A falling star is nothing more Than a star with a broken heart Crippled by her rejection It will suddenly fall apart Whenever you see a twinkling star It's just the Lover's dance Dying for her attention In its quest to find romance The Dippers, both big and small Were formed to quench her thirst They stand in line to honor her As they battle to be the first The Northern Star takes precedence As he points which way to go His countenance is blinding As he absorbs her radiant glow So, don't forget to watch the stars And smile each time they swoon For now you know this love story Between the stars and moon

That's some beautiful imagery; it's quite refreshing from the normal usage and abusage of the night sky. If you want to take this further; you could add in the un-seen sun's role in providing the moon's light.
