Stars In Our Eyes

Stars in our eyes

Twinkle twinkle little star, how we gaze your distance far
Years of light never to touch, thought provoke a welcomed crutch

The creator of life, a power unmatched
Will nourish a planet, or burn it black ash

Twinkle twinkle little star, did you make us who we are
Why so cold, and why so hot
A blinding beauty, forget me not.

Glistening away to the back drop of night
Like a dancing diamond or a firework flight

Enormous and small, you decorate the skies
With adoring thanks, for the stars in our eyes.

I enjoyed your stars poem, Edward, and good luck in the contest you entered. You submitted this poem here on April 22. That was my birthday. If you like star gazing, have you checked the Hubble telescope site out? They have over 100 images you can view. And they are amazing!
