Count the Stars

Lay back, begin to point, the night sky above you as a blanket you marvel at such a wonder. So many, they are so many, seeming so close and yet in truth they are so far. Can you count them all, I dare you to start.

You reach one hundred yet you've not even touched one section of the sky. Try to keep straight what you've already done as they sail on by. Reach two hundred and still going strong. Your arm starts to get tired from pointing up to long.

Don't stop, can't take a break, don't blink you may miss one or a dozen. Keep shouting out numbers as if your life was at stake. Get to five hundred and your voice loses volume, your eyes tire of trying to stay focused. Yet you continue, determined to reach your goal.

Soon you reach one thousand and know you just can't go on due to constantly losing your place. They're just to many, you know you caught the bright ones but not even noticed those that were faint. The heavens just to full for mere counting, as the mind begins to quake.

Accept that this may never be done, a tally of the cosmos is a great thing. So desire now just to sit back relax and let the universe keep score while you keep dreaming...

Stars Cry, When...

As you look out your window I anticipation. You see one then another pass by. They fly through the sky, with a wink in your direction. Your window frame holds this picture as you press your face upon the glass. Soon this isn't enough, your eyes naked must see for themselves. Closer, you run outside to dance as they rain down upon you. Little shots of fire, the night's sparklers flare over head; little do you now that this for the heavens is not joyful but from dread.

The sky cries tears of joy as the rains fall from the clouds heavy with much dew. This waters the Earth causing life to renew. Yet, as the twinkling lights of a fallen star flies over head, the night weeps as a long lived life is now dead. Burned out, gone Nova a stars journey has come to an end. All that's left behind are it's pieces floating through forever night. As you witness a rare show, know that all the stars above have lost some of their glow.

Now that one less light shines up above there is however new room for a birth coming from cosmic love. The gasses and matter spinning, creating a precious life, a new light will soon begin. In time this presence will take form it will shine like those around it bright and warm. So now we can smile once more, now a new star is born. So remind me again when do the stars cry? Only when you watch then shoot by as you dance in the night.

Little Bright Star ✨

Little Bright Star Keep Shinning...

The men followed your light above,

Above their heads you were shinning bright,

When you traveled long ago,

Little Bright Star Keep Shining...

Not only in the night but in the day,

Reminding all that your love is still there,

As bells ring out at given times,

Little Bright Star Keep Shinning...

The joy comes from within,

Keep on glowing so the world can understand,

Little star shine over every land,

Little Bright Star Keep Shinning...

A reworking of Little Bright Star by the Supreme’s

Cookie Stars

Baked in a vacuum oven on forever degrees.

Come out, let them cool, top them with yellow, red, green and blue frosting.

The sprinkles make them twinkle, so appetizing you can't look away.

Take one as a God that created them into your hands, marvel at there very sight. Give one a taste, hmm not quite right...

Something's missing oh yes now you know. Dunk one in the Milky Way, just like so.

Take a bite as crumbs fall like streaks to the floor, meteors, asteroids, and comets made of sweet goodness will be a rain the Earth's never experienced before.

Celeste

As a gift granted from above, come down from land of immortal beings to stay for a time among the mortal. A being of the infinite comes to see the flaws in those of it's origin but not fully if it's likeness, something is missing. Why is a will corrupted so easily? Share the same trials and tribulations yet those all around can't with stand being made to suffer long for the rewards that await them at the end of the trial. Must try to understand why it's so hard, so hard to live a steadfast life, with feet planted on a path carved out just for you. From the stars above they cry out to help, yet are told to wait only he can explain, experience, evade the temptations. Eventually a gift returns to it's place with findings of knowing why it's so difficult to live in such a planned out way. The heavens cry out come to me I can help you, follow my steps among the star path; it will lead you back to where you were all meant to be.

Making a Wish

I wish I was taller...

Shorter...

Prettier...

Thinner...

I wish I was richer...

Successful...

Talented...

Smarter...

I wish I was popular...

Well known...

Loved by everyone...

Had it all...

I wish I wish I wish...

Wave the magic wand and make my wishes come true. Let my petty, superficial, selfish little heart content. Let me be prosperous at most likely the expense of others who are probably more deserving, in need, in dyer straights. I should get everything I want without having to work, stress, or try hard to reach my goals. This is what I want and I deserve it now...

I wish I could close my eyes while speaking to my mind from my heart, and let those who feel the way as described above know that that's not how a wish works. To wish is to dream, to dream is to desire, to desire is to work for a goal, to work for the goal is to appreciate achieving, obtaining, gaining what you wanted that much more when you reach it. To be given everything teaches you nothing, to wish, then work for it teaches you everything...

Snow Stars

Falling, streaking, shooting through the sky. Come during the day, couldn't wait for the night. Land among others of it's kind that too have come to blanket the Earth as they blanket the sky. Crystals housing prisms that glow green, yellow, red and blue. Each it's own unique shape, no other like it. No longer can it pulse instead it now crunches if stepped on. A star you can touch, cold like it's origin the deep regions of space. Yet, watch it twinkle in the light and you will be warmed by this amazing Grace.

Star HeartBreak

The twinkling is gone, a heavenly body grows cold. It's pulse weakens, where there was once a rhythm now nothing can be heard. Fall, fallen, falling can't stay up any more it's just to hard. Life where there once was life is dying; the cold vacuum of it's realm can't even push or pull it anymore. Gravity lost to the will of those around it. Drift now, alone past others now burned out, gone the way of a dim bulb. Losing light, it's sun has forsaken it, no joy left to keep, make, bask in it's light. Nothing now but a dead cell, the darkness will be it's forever home. Shine no more, nothing left to shine for...
