Small, distance flickerings
Wave down in delight.
Darkness surround the world,
Just so they can finally be seen.

No clouds in the sky,
To hide their beauty
From the sparkling eyes
That look up from down below.

Flickerings twinkle and shine,
Creating many pictures,
For wanderers to hunt for and find.
Knowing that they will be surprised.

Lay down or stand still.
Look up towards Heaven in awe,
Watch the stars flicker with light,
As they appear all over the dark, blue sky.

Watch as they bring smiles,
Wondering looks,
Excitement within,
To the many faces watching.

Don't you worry, though,
When the flickerings have all gone away.
They are just asleep behind the bright sun,
Recharging themselves for the next night.

They will be back,
To shine brilliantly once again.
They love to see the beautiful glows,
Of the people's faces down below.
