sophie stares at the stars
thinking
they're like those magic cards
quiet and shy
until they dance and play
left and right
singing and swaying
away into the night
keeping her company
when pillows aren't enough
distract her keen ears
from a bear's angry roars
no, sweetness
look here at us
the house a lasting memory
of a stripey bunny's weak cries
the unfaltering kindness
of twinkling far away
usher their wond'ring child
striped with tears
up into the sky.
