Little Star

Little Star

A Poem by ROXANE DORSEY

-----dancing star, I wonder who you are.
It rains on your parade, but you show up
another day. Around and round orbit you
dance with your hot pants. so hot to you
twinkle. 
-----little star watch out for a planet 
called Mars. The dirt is red, there's no
comfortable bed to lay your head. The
flowers won't grow nor should a human go.
-----shine on planet earth to show where
the better dirt is clear. Waterfalls and
insects sing their harmony. As you always
dancing the twinkle in space where the 
real stars are and out of reach. You give
me a happy show every night to brighten
up my life.

Nice very nice the only thing I didn't like is that there a line similar to the song, but there's nothing wrong with that.

Dear Roxanne. I did enjoy this poem.
"` As you always
dancing the twinkle in space where the
real stars are and out of reach. You give
me a happy show every night to brighten
up my life."
I did like the above lines. Hopeful and wonderful. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

Roxanne,
I like the reference of the little star dancing in hot pants so hot it makes the star twinkle. Very creative.

interesting presentation ...always the optimist i am grateful for the positive closing .. fun play with the nursery rhyme and cliche's .. sharp contrast between hostile Mars and fertile Earth ..

Was always told as a kid. All my dead relations were stars. Maybe that's true for everyone. So a show is a must every night. Who knows what the future holds for space travel. Is there others like us.

love poetry since it has been embedded in my mind deeply way back when I was 4 years old. A very good reader in pre-school. Nursery rhymes tuned me in even deeper. more..
