Starry Starry Night
Starry Starry Night
It was a crystal clear night when one
By nocturnal watch lies gazing into the darkness
The eternal endless expanse brought to life by stellar light.
Stars so close that one could capture its brilliance
Reaching, grasping, touching
Hands extended to keep one forever.
Through this glorious sea of galactic beauty
The gazer finds what he is searching for,
The collimation of sight aligning his future
One distant, tiny twinkle,
An apparition eclipsed by others,
Falls through the night into his universe.
He closes his eyes and makes a wish.
