Description
I sat outsideThe sky was as dark as the ink in my pen
Stars twinkled
They seemed to be calling my name
So soft spoken were they
My father gazed at them
Through the eyes of his telescope
He charted their movement
Like a captain charts his journey
"What are stars?"
I asked in a quiet voice
I didn't want to disturb them
"They are huge balls of gas that burn bright"
He replied as he concentrated
Those gentle stars danced together
It seemed like forever
All night long
