Paint the Sky With Stars

The vast midnight blue Ready .............. Ready, for my stars too Reaching for my palette, no words needed................ I was all set This midnight sky seeded I painted the sky with stars Jupiter and Mars............. Saturn and its rings........ So many wondrous things Mercury and Pluto......... The beautiful Venus light, especially bright! Such heavenly bodies so! These stars I hold The stories they told! The midnight sky................ begins to unfold I painted the sky with stars Each one held a thought A special light This I wrought, to illuminate the night The Earth light A jewel so bright! No blue can compare to this colour ...so rare Uranus, so far from home Somehow not alone The Milky Way, an accidental brush at play I painted the sky with stars This deep blue Now, you can know it too Starlight................ Falls on you
