Midnight Starlight

On a cold spring night As I traveled home Veiled in the dark Cloaked in stars My mind just a blank As I stared off into space. Sprinkled across a darken sky When the sun says good night They illuminate the darkness Like a million candles that flicker in the dark. Constellations of every form When you take a closer look Connecting the dots one at a time To see what takes shape. How many cover our sky? How many can you count in a night? How many can you remember Even when they fade away At the stroke of dawn? There are stars that stay where they are There are those that change their position There are those that take another path Then there are those that shine That glows brighter than fire That bring beauty to the night.
