Twinkle, twinkle, little star, <br />How I wonder what you are, <br />Up above the world so high, <br />Like a diamond in the sky. <br /> <br />When the blazing sun is set, <br />And the grass with dew is wet, <br />Then you show your little light, <br />Twinkle, twinkle, all the night. <br /> <br />Then the traveler in the dark <br />Thanks you for your tiny spark, <br />He could not see where to go <br />If you did not twinkle so. <br /> <br />In the dark blue sky you keep, <br />And often through my curtains peep, <br />For you never shut your eye <br />Till the sun is in the sky. <br /> <br />As your bright and tiny spark <br />Lights the traveler in the dark, <br />Though I know not what you are, <br />Twinkle, twinkle, little star.<br /><br />Jane Taylor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-star-11/
