The Stars They Shine


The stars they shine, like diamonds in velvet. So grand and so bright way up in the sky. A breeze blew by but I barely felt it. My mind mesmerized by those stars, but why? Then clouds rolled in and I let out a sigh. There will be no more stargazing tonight. I find a place in the darkened field to lie. I fall asleep, dreaming of the stars so bright. I waken to the early morning light. The beautiful sun hides my stars from me. So all day I wait for that nighttime sight. I wait, daydreaming under a tree. Waiting for my beautiful tonight. Waiting for my stars to light up the night.
