Nights Guiding Light

They twinkle so bright late into the night Guide sea fairing men like a blazing light For centuries man has stopped to admire The breathtaking glimmer, a streak on fire Though one may try to keep a count Their numbers seem to continue to mount They seem to lift ones spirits high Wondrous lights that dot the evening sky Glow and shimmer they beckon us near Though man can visit their atmosphere Try as he may to catch the lights They run to be free they take to flight So let us admire them from afar It twinkles and glows a beautiful star
