My Star

My star is gone tonight,
No twinkle for gone is the light.

Dark clouds float slowly closer-
Mother has hidden!
And closer still-
Brightness forbidden!

This is absurd,
I might just quake,
And shake,
My fist to give ‘em a word.

The veil which conceals,
My watching eye,
It steals,
A beauty of the sky.

That is what usually happens when there is a cloudy sky at night. With simple wording, this entry delivers decent descriptiveness.
