Cheering the Stars

a chorus of laughter
everyone is standing on his toes
their faces
   blooming smiles
   chanting & cheering
   clapping & admiring
a chorus of laughter
ululation mix into whistling
far away 
far in heaven above
the stars twinkle

Who are these people? Why are they laughing? Why should I care? Actually I don't
