The Myriad Stars of a Summer Night

Countless numbers of the nights diamonds,
Boundless and bright twinkling afar.
Infinite beauty of magical luminosity,
Untold heavenly bodies known as stars.

It's nature's jewelry, prominent, and shiny,
Gleaming asterisks of spangling tiny light.
The heavens are filled with preeminent beauty,
From the myriad stars of a summer night.

Paul, this brought me back to a warm summer evening, lying on my back on a grassy hill, staring up at the trillions of stars. This is beautiful, and thanks for sharing. (I'm new here, so pardon me if this is inappropriate of me, but I think you spelled shiny wrong.) Just trying to help.. I'll get a feel for the proper protocol soon I hope. Tom

Raul you create a majical marvel here of beuty and elegance. What a beuatiful Starry night you have created here. Excellent write. Magnificent choice of "heavenly" words. This is wonderful. Reminds me of Peaceful Snowflake. Michael Torres
