STARS OF CLARITY

STARS OF CLARITY The stars look down as I look up to them I sense meaning in the darkness between The tiny twinkles of light I see and respect Accentuate what appears as the black void They offer an insight to solve life’s problems ‘Til now, lurking unseen in the undergrowth But these stars of clarity offer a new prospect To examine all the pits and scratches of life And for the first time, see the bigger picture Perspective is the first real step toward sanity Yet I wonder, who else sees stars in this way Maybe millions, but billions just see blackness

I like your take on the contest prompt--seeing the bigger picture, billions of stars of clarity. Well said...a good contest contender. Have a splendid evening, Sara
