Cosmic Eudaemonia

While in a field the other night, 
I looked up at the midnight sky. 
The stars were like a symphony, 
An orchestra in their own right.

The stars in perfect harmony
Performed a concert, just for me.
The moon began it’s slow descend
Just as the astral music peaked.

I wish I could go back again,
To that wonderful halcyon,
But when I look up from the roof
My eyes are filled with murkiness.

Still, on that fateful night of blue,
I saw a special star that flew
And on that star I made a wish,
I wished that you would see one too.
