Dancing Stars

The stars in the sky throw a party at night A million twinkling points of light. They come and invite me as a guest To witness the dance and judge the contest. The Big Dipper’s ladle scoops the dark Orion the hunter leaves his mark. Twinkling stars jig and jive While shooting stars take a dive. A million tiny diamonds bright Scattered high across the night. The moon, a giant disco ball That casts a glow upon them all. No music plays, but silence sings Of distant worlds and wondrous things. The next time you see a starry throng Remember the party goes on all night long!
