Wisdom of the Stars
May 20, 2011
On clear spring nights, are you ever drawn to the stars?
Have you ever stared into their midst, wondering who it is you are?
Is there something forgotten, hidden somewhere in the sky?
A cosmic key lost in space, an answer to your Why?
Do you seek the universe's perspective,
to see yourself as you truly are?
Maybe if you ponder their twinkle long enough
you can gain the wisdom
of the stars.

Well, on both of the "are" lines you are basically saying the same thing. so i meant both. You rhyme "are" twice, and then you say 'wondering who you truly are' (basically) twice, too. that's what i meant. Maybe conjure up a brand new thought and find some other rhyming word so you are not repeating yourself in both aspects. It no big deal though!!!

This is great, as well. I would maybe change the second line that has the "are" at the end. It feels like you are repeating yourself a bit. Other than that! Keep it up! and yes, i have wondered the same. The stars make everything so BIG. It's hard to take it all in was you recognize the enormity of it all. that kind of thing makes us wonder.. :)
