Starry Night

As I sit just looking at the moon.
And I wonder are there others
like me way up there.

I admire the sparkling stars.
That gives light to the night.
Sometimes I think I could 
reach up and grab one.

Though I know not possible.
So here I sit and admire 
this very pretty starry night.

After all, I'm just a cat.

my desktop has a starry night & cat looking at the moon

I had a cat years ago that tried to catch the lights from passing cars as the reflected light traveled along the wall. Good write.
