Taken literally, I too miss the stars. I remember when young going to the mountains with no outside light and seeing so many stars, now all gone due to light pollution. But figuratively, I feel that the present has taken the stars from our eyes with its form of light pollution. Nicely done Chris.

Someone has taken the stars away. I remember African skies shimmering with stars.

Sadly light pollution has blotted them out. I have to travel in to the heart of countryside to get a glimpse. I miss the starlight. Thank you for your review.
dear Chris… I love 💗 the ending…. It seems we have not had Stars for quite some time. softly, Pat

Wow, this is an awesome piece of work. Now I am thoroughly embarrassed that you have taken the time to read the drivel I write. I just saw the little dipper the other night and I cant remember seeing anything but low altitude satellites, or high altitude drones around here. By the way tonights full moon was a wonderful sight .

We don’t often get a display of starlight, but like you make the most of the moon.

I am finally back after over 5 long weeks of being quite ill.
So excited to be reading my favorite poets words.

The words moved along so easily.
Really good!!

That was really nice Chris, though to lose the stars is a sad thought. But I guess clouds could do that as well and the good thing is, the clouds will eventually disappear, and your beloved stars will be found right where they have always been and if not, I am sure I have a few spare stars sitting around somewhere I would be happy to give to you.

Thank you for your generous review will. An older poem out for an airing.
We're full of dreams when we're young and they fizzle out over time until (for some of us) we have nothing left to strive for but the end.

This just fits. The time, the place, our feelings and the truth. Profound and yet enjoyably rythmic for all that.
