Nighttime Musing

11:00 p.m.

A plane or a star?

I've been staring for so long,

My perception's gone.

A wing light blinking,

Or just a star glittering?

What does it matter...

Still I lay in bed

Watching the night sky twinkle

From sources unknown

Pondering, thinking

While my worries take their cue

From the stars or planes:

They just burn brighter.

Very nice, Stephanie. As a youngster, I spent countless hours laying under a star-filled sky, pondering life before me.

A beautifully simple piece of how easilly our souls may be inspired.

Well penned!

Very good poem. The imagery was great in it. It really made me imagine the sky at night.

[KATHY SUE SILLS]

Always a pleasure just to stare at the sky, God's creation and visulize beyond our imagination! Excellent write!

[SoulCrusader (Yas)]

A fine write, and thoughts of the night sky and its vastness, when I observe always takes my breath away. Great penning :)

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

The mysteries of the skies can create endless inspirations. I can relate well to this.
