The Universe

The sky seems so wide dreams become lost in the stars

And that's why the Moon stays shining,

To help light the way to the Big Dipper

Where I can wish people well

By telling them to reach to the heavens and above

That's why the world becomes the ground on which ladders are built

Because with each step there's another day

To make the night lights stay on until everyone is safely at home

At home where dinner feels like meals

And there's no window that stays closed

Because the wind needs to cool down the heat from the oven

The rivers stay running because it's better than my thoughts

Since the only water that reigns on my throne are tears

The ones that fear an eye for safety

So they hide from people's words like crosswords

And words just cross people in the wrong direction

So what is said becomes what is regretting

It's setting the wrong impressions on impressing others

than yourself

Where is this world's mind?

Because I'm not sure where in the Universe mine is. . .
