I love being away from the busy
streets of downtown where the
street lights and building lights
blanket the sky with a crowded haze.

Take me to a place
beyond the reach of
the city’s hazy blanket.

A place where—as far as the
eyes can see, the sky is lit
with the beauty of the stars.
Not to count them lucky or
to make a wish upon one
as it’s fleeting through the night.

Underneath the stars
is where I marvel
at God’s universe.
Underneath the stars
is where I count
my blessings and
find my peace.
