CUBE16 Poem
Sometimes... I See the Stars! by Sally Law

Sometimes I sit,
sometimes I don't.
Perhaps I will,
perhaps I won't.

However near,
however far;
I'm searching for
the brightest star.

The sky's a blur,
it's hard to say,
if I will see
them anyway.

Heaven is mine,
but not for long.
I'd better scribe
my starry song.

Author Notes
I'm nearing the end of my eyesight. Saturday, my husband surprised me with a date, a telescopic view of the blue moon and stars over the Atlantic. In a rare event, I sighted the North Star without my telescope. I cried with delight! The blue moon was obscured, but we saw it for a few seconds. It was awesome!

Thanks again to Jannypan for this video below. I watch this regularly since she shared it with me last year. Blessings, dear Jan, and thank you for the cool video link!! I put on my red shoes and danced!
