Stargazer

The night is all mine.
Laying in lush, dew soaked grass
Hands for a pillow,
My earthbound home forgotten
As I hitch a ride with stars…

When I was a kid in the "old" days, I used to lay in the grass of our baseball field on a summer's night and star gaze. Pleasant memory. Congratulations Kristin on "Stargazer" being featured. It sort of gives you an awe on those starlit nights. Vince
