it's warmer tonight

as I sit outside

in the dark

I look up and

the stars are twinkling

in an obsidian sky

a light breeze reminds me

that the earth is alive

breathing

singing

cradling

life

I'm still amazed that

there are so

many more stars

than I could possibly see

right above me

studding the blackness

with countless

points of light

that hear me

and see me

they know my secrets

tucked away in stardust

to keep them safe

my hopes and dreams

float slowly up on the breeze

toward the heavens until

I lose sight of them

maybe they'll float back down

and maybe they won't

and it's OK

because I've got these stars to talk to

and it's warmer tonight.

“The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language Where their voice is not heard. Their line has gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun." Psalms‬ ‭19‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭NKJV
