Stars – Perceptions

Counting the stars are two;

the eager innocent child

and the frustrated watchman

Make Way

The sun was there for everybody,

overstaying, sneering at every living

and non-living thing

 

As the clouds moved in

to grace the thirsty

earth with water,

the sun stared them away

 

When the moon tried to

bath the land with her glow,

the sun angrily glared her away

 

Finally, the stars pushed themselves

forward, taking with them the night,

and the sulking sun was involuntarily

pushed back
