Star
WHAT IS A STAR?
THE BRIGHT OBJECT AFAR.
IT SHINES SO BRIGHTLY AT NIGHT,
IT GLITTERS ALL RIGHT.
NOT A WORD IT WILL SAY,
THROUGH THE PASSING DAYS.
WAITING FOR DARKNESS TO FALL,
SO THAT IT COULD HAVE A BALL.
LOOKING DOWN ON THE PLANET IT DOES,
WATCHING COURTING COUPLES MAKE A FUSS.
THE ROMANTIC STAR ALIGHT,
THAT SHINES WITH ALL ITS MIGHT.
THE STORIES IT COULD IT TELL,
OF THE MIDNIGHT WEDDING BELL.
ALSO THE SORDID DEEDS OF MAN,
THOSE STORIES WE WOULD BAN.
THE GLITTERING STAR,
THE BRIGHT WHITE CAR.
IT MOVES WITHOUT ANY GAS,
WATCHING AS THE TIME DOES PASS.
THE MIGHTY STAR,
THE FRIENDLY STAR.
LIGHTING AND COMFORTING FROM A LONG TIME AGO,
ALWAYS GIVING A BRIGHT WHITE GLOW.
