Original Nursery Rhyme:
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
My Rhyme:
Listen, listen, little dream
How I cry and how I scream!
In my heart, your muse stirs,
Promising my hope is yours.
Listen, listen, little dream
How I cry and how I scream!
Please allow my wishes to become reality,
The moment you hear this rhyme, ASAP!
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
I believe I know what you are!
You fuse hydrogen, helium, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, iron, nickel, and some more
In your core.
With mass more than a hundred to thousands of times our own.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
You formed from collapsing under your gravity within a molecular cloud
You’re an opaque ball of hot dense gas born from a stellar nebula
You are, so far, a protostar!
For you have yet to reach maturity
As you commence the start of your journey
To become what we know as a black dwarf.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
I know what you are
Underneath the starlit night I journey on this desert plain
with each step the sand gets deeper, longer, and sharper—
The Pain.
This land continuously brakes possibly to the point its beyond repair
it even changes to a beach with an ocean more salt than water—
The Despair.
But as I walk I look up at the millions of bright stars and stare
hoping at some point one will grace me and shoot down my way—
The Prayer.
That’ll burn happiness into my life revealing with a warm flame
angelic eyes, radiant hair, and gleaming smile but not what I desire—
Your Name.
Early riser, coffee in my hand
Watching the stars as they fade away
Yes, twinkle twinkle little star
Go, I'll admire you another day
Your light has come so very far
From a different time and place
A distance I cannot comprehend
Through this mystery called space
When I break this earthly bond
Perhaps the heavens I'll explore
Flying to see you face to face
And walk through infinity's door
For the Stars - OLD POEMS Contest
Twinkle twinkle little star,
commercials now, then movies
far; soon your name will shine
above, theatres grand and
TV’s glove.
When they shout, for autograph,
now a wealthy man’s sure path.
Bells your fingers, rings your nose,
twenty million a picture (it shows)
Friends forgotten, family gone, once
their little star just shone; but now
there’s only time for work; big star
pay, but little jerk.
It's up there
The star that shines for me
Named on the day I was born
My guiding light, shines free
When I was a baby
My mam sang to me when I cried
Twinkle twinkle little star
Said was my very own lullaby
I look for this star for guidance
In my every day
I look up and ask am I doing things right
I know the answer right away
Do what you heart is telling you
Look up and see my light
I am just a twinkling star
Yes I am showing you it's alright.
Once upon a summers night
as I look upon a cloudless sky
stars above me shining bright
the wondrous beauty of this sight
makes me ponder how and why
makes me sing with all my might
twinkle twinkle little star
how I wonder what you are
up above the world so high
like a diamond in the sky
the stars above tell their fable
Perseus, Andromeda in the sky
Pegasus in his stable
keeping a watchful eye
twinkle twinkle little star
how I wonder what you are
brightly burning flame-less fire
grant me all that I desire
Twinkle , twinkle little star
how I wonder who you are
it seems I can not remember
the day or month or the year
Alzheimer's is the word
my doctor said ,
that what I hear.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
how I wonder what your name
does this word mean I am going insane?
it seem I pick up a fork to eat
but I think it a spoon,
my family don't understand me
I feel out of tune.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
I hide in my room
please don't ask me to come out
don't you all understand I am
forgetting what this worlds all about.
like each bright star up in the dark sky
I only can make out certain things
now everything seem scary
and I still don't know why.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
soon I will be place in a nursing home
for it will be unsafe of me to be out and about
but don't worry I will not care.
God always with me, because he
shines a light for me from way up stairs.
Every night the glow from the moon and the stars above
keep watch over people like me
who know not what the day ahead,
or can not remember the words to them you
may of said.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
Early riser, coffee in my hand
Watching the stars as they fade away
Yes, twinkle twinkle little star
Go, I'll admire you another day
Your light has come so very far
From a different time and place
A distance I cannot comprehend
Through this mystery called space
When I break this earthly bond
Perhaps the heavens I'll explore
Flying to see you face to face
And walk through infinity's door
An everlasting duel afar
Between light and dark
Twinkle twinkle little star
In night sky like a czar
You ignite a hopeful spark
An everlasting duel afar
On the notes of a guitar
A caravan you embark
Twinkle twinkle little star
Riding on the moon car
How to hide myths so stark
An everlasting duel afar
Seen as lost souls’ avatar
Like the elusive singing lark
Twinkle twinkle little star
Amazing patterns yet bizarre
Hoping to achieve a mark
An everlasting duel afar
Twinkle twinkle little star
Twinkle, twinkle little star
I don't know what you are
Why do you shine at night?
Shining shimmering you give light.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
Your spark lights like a lightning car
Everyone wishes looking you up
Hoping that they'll own a golden cup.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
You are splendid but you're too far
Jump and fall to the ground
We'll be happy if you are around.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
We'll dance ever like in a bar
Live with us and give us hope
See you flying while we're on a slope.
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder where you are
I know I promised I would write
But someone steals my time at night
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I need you where you are
On the soup to play with me
We’re good together can’t you see
Twinkle twinkle little star
We all love you where you are
Stick with us cos we can see
How well you write your poetry
Twinkle twinkle my little friend
You stop me going around the bend
Your are the ink inside my pen
So get me writing once again
To my friend Seren. Don’t go hun you are a star luv xx

Twinkle, twinkle little star
I don’t know what got you where you are.
Up above, but I can’t see you
Through the snow and clouds there too.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I would like to be where you are.
Looking down upon the ground
Watching us all race around.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
Why can’t I be where you are?
Then again I would be dead
That’s a thing that we all dread.
Looking up, we can’t see you
I suppose you cannot see me too
Twinkle, twinkle little star
I think I’ll not go where you are.
Twinkle, twinkle little star
She got them stuck on her bits, they are
Shining from the lights above
As she caresses her booty with a Michael Jackson glove
Twinkle, twinkle booty sister
Pole dancing in shoes that gave her a blister
Sweating from the spot lights below
Gives her an even juicy glow
Men stuff money between her cheeks and toes
They get poorer while her money grows
Twinkle, twinkle pole dance girl
Providing men with an all night thrill
Twinkle twinkle little star,
what a precious gem you are.
Sparkling diamond in the night,
high up in the sky so bright.
Twinkle twinkle little star,
I will make a wish by far.
Then drift off fast to sleep,
my wish I hope you will keep.
