Premiere Contest WinnerI Am a Blue Marble With White Spirals

While writing this at night
I felt someone watching me from above
I looked up and met stars
Stars and still stars and stars again
Millions and millions of miles away over there
Seated at that twinkling window
Are you too writing poetry like me
Can you give me a starry line 
from your enthralling sway
I am a blue marble with white spirals
