Why Are There Stars

Why are there stars? Or are they millions of fires in the sky That do not die? Or are they souls of fireflies Flown out beyond our reach? Or are they tiny windows To other places? Why are there stars? The stars are there To make us ask if we are the only The stars are there To show how insignificantly we each shine alone The stars are there To show how important we all are together That we are given stars to see Why are there Stars? I cannot say for certain I wish I understood I will watch them and try to learn, then I will tell you Why there are stars Written July 4, 2018
