Starfish

Gold stars contouring the ocean’s borders
Stretching out its corners on the sand
They move around the ocean playing a starring role
A private view from the deep ocean floor they lay

In the night sky, the star constellations look down to their gaze
Somehow they can communicate their importance within creation

“How lovely you shine” they compliment one another

“How do shine so deep in the dark?”

“And, how do you shine so high above the waters?”

They ask each other

Sunlight travels down and finds these beloved sea stars slow creeping along the ocean floor
Bringing forth their beauty and impressive ways for all oceanic creatures to adore
