My Musings

My Musings

To those below, I'm just a star
that twinkles in the night.
So many million miles away,
I should be out of sight.

Producing my own heat and light,
I twinkle down to earth.
Inside my core the gases churn
through my celestial girth.

My night sky world of beauty is
amazing to behold,
and unlike those who live below
I'll never feel the cold.

The time will come-we stars do die,
and others born to light the sky.
