As I See The Wonder

Joseph M. Novo 1951 (Watsonville Ca)

Free verse
As I cover myself
With a blanket of night
My little night lights
Twinkle, a twinkle in my eyes
Letting me see the wonder
Of the sky as it dreams
So many things I wonder
Can this be all there is
Star light star bright
I wish I can, I wish I might
See the light
 Of a home so far away
That it may see my light
From a home so far away
