(I can write a non-depressing poem lol)

I sit and ponder at the dark blue sky

How the stars twinkle in midnight

The moon sits up so high

Always shining so bright

A nice breeze shifts the air

There is a little chill here and there

But my eyes continue to stare

The stars seem to flare

The sky is covered with a nice glow

Some shoot to and fro

All the stars put on a show

Each one appears to grow

The moons light starts to fade

As a fog of clouds takes its place

The wind comes to its aid

The clouds leave without a trace

Only if I could be so near

There would be nothing for me to fear

Everything would be so clear

I might even start to tear

The water glistens under the moon

It sings its own little tune

The sounds are always very boon

I think it has its own rune

Even the stars gather around

But the moon seems to be the host

They all enjoy the beautiful sound

But never do they boast

Some of the stars start to fly

Leaving trails of light across the sky

I cannot help but start to cry

It is truly beauty to my eye

They are as bright as they can be

So much I can barely see

They all look so free

I cannot help but to show some glee

As I look out towards North

All my pain starts to ease

I watch the clouds come forth

The night sky is my peace

If only I was at the beach

Oh how much the stars would preach

It all seems out of reach

But nobody would be a creech

The feeling of sand under my feet

That would be such a treat

The ocean smells very sweet

And the stars look perfectly neat

I walk around and my footprints engraves

As my feet enters the oceans edge

The dark blue water always waves

And it tends to give the same pledge

The cool water overlaps

And fills the sands little gaps

Around my foot the water wraps

Mixed in with shell scraps

I watch the waves go in out

Always going the same route

Nothing here seems to shout

There is no reason for them to pout

On the waves the stars reflect

Glowing down ever so slightly

Very faint your can barely detect

But no worries it is there nightly

I reach down and cup the sand

How cold it feels in my hand

And yet soft but firm when I stand

It never even looks bland

And on the sand I decide to lay

I close my eyes and try to pray

I already know what to say

Thank you for this beautiful day

When I open my eyes

There is a wonderful sight

A row of birds start to rise

Over the ocean they begin their flight

Or on a mountain I could be

Oh how much I would see

The stars sit above the trees

As I stare out at the lea

Back to the stars my gaze goes

How they seem to be so close

For once I can forget the worlds lows

And focus on all the pros

The stars are always very pure

I cannot even begin to compare

But it is my sadness that they cure

It is why all I can do is stare

It is the stars that I begin connect

Each one I carefully inspect

I look at those I chose to select

And out shines an object

So many shapes I can make

With nothing being at stake

Afar I see a little drake

Or maybe even a snake

My head grows a bit tired

So I remember all I have admired

All the views have been inspired

By something I have never acquired

I place myself back at home

But I wish I could float away

Around the world I want to roam

But it is here I have to stay

It is tried that I grow

My mind starts to slow

I look up for a final show

Amazed again by the moon's glow

How I will miss the night sky

Oh all the tears I could cry

I never want to say goodbye

I take a big deep sigh

Among the stars it is a wish I make

I close my eyes and lift my head

And until the morning in which I wake

It my wish that stars will spread

Waiting until another night

I will dream of the nights light

As it is the sun's turn to shine so bright

They are all such a beautiful sight
