Staring Up At The Sky

Staring up at the sky leaves me to wonder why,

Why do the stars shine so bright and why

The moon only comes out at night, leaving

everywhere airy and bright.

When winter seeps in, the frost creeps along

The ground, leaving the weather feeling so cold

But everywhere else appears to be sound.

The stillness of the night – the owls hooting

Without a care, looking for food if they dare.

What a wonderful thing nature is, knowing it

Is always there – and that is how we should

Live – without care.
