The Mystery of the Stars

The stars have come to visit earth;	
they're flitting all around,
and twinkling, flying o'er your head,
but making not a sound.

They're lightning bugs or fireflies,
you name them as you will.
They dance their magic waltz of light,
while the dark night is still.

A million of them light your way,
as you walk through a glen,
exposing night time secrets there,
that are beyond your ken.
