Distinct Star


I am a tree that grows

a bird that flies

a mountain that towers

a firefly that glows

I am not what they say

a rock that sinks

a glass that breaks

a leaf that decays

I am a star in the night sky

With every blink, a different star, a different wonder

each being separate, regardless of the others that shone around them

Never it be wrong to be a star of your own

I am a distinct star
