Author’s Notes:

I wrote this either on the way or the way back from Thailand (went on a mission trip this winter; it was awesome.). I was looking down on the lights of the city from an airplane. It was beautiful... Unfortunately for me, the pictures I tried taking did not fair so well...

They were pinpricks;
Stars!
They danced beneath me,
As I glided gently by.
Mini constellations;
Small galaxies;
Holding the lives of so many.

Unfading in the night,
Hidden in the day,
Unmoving,
Impassive,
Yet comforting.
Look down from above,
And wonder what lives below.
What are the names
Of each individual star?
Lights in the distance;
Pinpricks...
Stars...
