What is it about stars that captures our imagination?
Have you ever wondered why
we are so enamored with that giant Lite-Brite in the sky?
Why do we find romance and mystery
in those twinkling little beams?
Why do we so easily attach to them
our wishes…
our hopes
our dreams?
Why do we find so much wonder in their existence?
Why do their beauty we applaud?
Why among them do we create our heavens?
Why is it there we place our Gods?
Could it be when we walk in the night
and see the stars aglow
we realize how tiny we are and all the things we do not know?
Could it be when we look up to the sky at night
and see how she’s star-kissed
it’s easier to believe that beauty
and wonder
and miracles do exist.
Perhaps the stars are here to remind us
even in our darkest night
all we need to do is look up…if we want to see the light.
Or perhaps since imagination is a trait
that is uniquely ours….
It’s not the stars that capture our imagination
It’s our imagination that captures the stars.
