Twinkling Little Stars

TWINKLING LITTLE STARS Why are there shining stars, showing serenity, twinkling twinkling arousing curiosity of children? Imagery of poets wander in in wonder gazing on cluster of stars. Philosopher searches vastness of Universe seeking significance of infinite space accommodating billions and billions of stars. Science gives explanation of birth and death of stars forming billions of galaxies extending and expanding. Indian fairy tale tells, each human being becomes a star after death, sparkling and sending blessing to descendants. I stare at stars seeking, which stars are sparkling in guise of my Mom, Dad, Grandparents, cousins, relatives, my friends and close ones? I am also in queue. Where shall I see my place in space, transforming to star transcending death? My ultimate destination. 06/26/18 'Why Are Stars There?' Contest by Julia Ward
