Starry night

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, how I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, ow I wonder what you are

The impressive starry sky I saw when I was flying to Canberra is still flashing in my mind all the time. I know nothing about astronomy and zodiac only means tales to me. But at that time I wondered why the word 'star' is not an uncountable term. Felt like they were all shining eyes which were going to talk to you whenever you looked up to them. I was brought up under quite a narrow sky and star is always a luxury to me, while we call the colorful neon as a romantic substitute. After all it is just a kind of pollution.

It was freezing outside and I saw a starry night again. It seems that a starry night only happens in cold days. Maybe the white breathe sharpens the coolness of light, from at least 4 light years away.

Once I had a notebook called 'On the Brink of Our Starry Night'. I have opened it since...Am I going to start reading it over again?
