twinkle twinkle little star.....
how I wonder what you are....
Up above the world so high
like a diamond in the sky....
when the blazing sun is gone...when he nothing shines upon....
Then you show your little light, twinkle twinkle, all the night.
Then the traveler in the dark
Thanks you for your tiny spark.....
He could not see which way to go....
if you did not twinkle so....
in the dark blue sky you keep
and often through my curtains peep....
for you never shut your eye, till the sun is in the sky....
and as your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveler in the dark....
Though I know not what you are...
twinkle twinkle...little star.
(The Star, Jane Taylor, 1806)
peace and love....and shining as bright as you can...filling the world with love, light, and hope...
