The sun shines in all its glory,
beaming its light,
day and night.
We the stars and the moon
just mere reflections of
what it is even in the noon
when all the power we have
is hard to notice.
Night falls and in the darkness
We shine, some brighter than others.
We shine, close but really miles apart.
A spectacular sight to behold
where we all hope to be the
shooting star of the night.
We shall wait our turn,
as we continue to be at awe
of your majestic splendour
all day and every night.
