Looking for that Lonely Star

Looking for that lonely Star

Which travels near, yet so far?

High up in the darkened Sky

Almost out of sight as you pass by

Twinkling like a beacon light

Providing shadows in the night

A lighthouse to the Universe

Just like Sunlight in reverse

Shooting across your night time path

A streak just left as an aftermath

Amongst your friends, millions I know

What wonderful sights, to see them all go?

On their nightly ephemeral high above the earth

Traveling at such speed, for all their worth

Twinkle, Twinkle little star

I will always wonder where you are

One moment there, the next you have disappeared

Have you left me forever like I have always feared?

Would happen one day, a mystery

Where would you go, away from me?

Thankfully you have never deserted your nightly route

Always there looking so cute

A bright light I can forever see

I hope, there in the sky, you will always be
