stars in the sunlight.

the stars in the sky are like diamonds at night.
to look at them is a glorious sight!
but where do they come from?
there do they go during the day
when the sun provides our play?
stars are a diamond collection.
each cut and shaped to absolute perfection.
at least that is how it seems,
but how is it behind the scenes?
a star in the sunlight is magical.
even with light.
stars never stop shining whether
they are being shone or not.
behind the scenes or on the spot.
their night performance is fantastic!
but their ability during the day is drastic.
stars are like philosophers you see,
they are much older and wiser than you and me.
they live many years.
they laugh, they shed tears.
in the sunlight they are still guiding you
whether or not they are being seen.
they arent always visible,
at night to see them your eyesight doesnt need to be keen.
stars in the sunlight is clever and bright!
they dont need to be the center of attention.
they dont want everyone to know they give love and affection.
no, they are much to wise.
they dont need a plague, nor medal to prove it.
they just love, and care!
that is their reward, their prize.
yes, diamond are great to look at.
but stars in the sunlight are far beyond that.

  2. "the stars in the sky are like diamonds at night" This reminds me of the day when your sister Chloe was born. We were camping and got the call before daylight. Stepping out of the trailer, I looked up at the sky and there they were ... those sparkling diamonds, as if they were announcing this special event.
