The heavens are embedded
With a myriad of stars
That we earthlings look upon
Each night
In wonder
In

We sometimes assume
That the brightest stars
Are greatest, but we forget
That they are
Merely closest

Billions of stars are burning,
Billions of stars are named,
And in this way,
They are all
Alike

Although not all earthlings can see
All of the stars at the same time,
Or even at all,
God sees
Each one

We are the burning stars with names,
We are burning consequential fires
Let us burn as they burn
Whether man sees
Or not
