"Starlight"

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.

When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.

Then the traveler in the dark
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
How could he see where to go,
If you did not twinkle so?

In the dark blue sky you keep,
Often through my curtains peep
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.

As your bright and tiny spark
Lights the traveler in the dark,
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.


Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, by Jane Taylor


Considering that it's generally dark when I leave home and dark by the time I get back, it can be hard enough to get a good photo of the sky. But add a full of day of pouring rain and it gets even harder. We didn't even get outside for recess. So when I noticed this display in the upstairs window of a shop in the middle of town on the way home, I pulled over, rolled down the window, and took a photo while looking up from the driver's seat. As you could imagine, it looks better from farther away! It's not much, but probably the best I could hope for under the circumstances.
