Preternatural 16
Night Sky
”
Gazing upon the nightly sky
Little specs of light I spy
There in contrast to the darkness is thy light
Lives you lead so high above
As angels to guide life at night
Protecting and watching from the vastness above
Cherished once for possessions held
Wondrous map for the traveler by night
Chart of light, precision in flight
More than light, more than sight
Life contained in the light
Giving it's self so life can live on
But much more than life living
More than just life giving
A complex being, as us, but fire
Going beyond protecting and watching
Familiar with life, supporting and loving,
Constant in the lives of life
Always there, so high above
Never to leave our lives
Never to feel alone, the night sky.
