a rush of vision

so many stars the sight comes as a shock
in the warm night a wisp of passing cloud
reminds me of a cobweb or a shroud

i have not come to this place to take stock
but to show off the child of whom i'm proud
so many stars the sight comes as a shock

it's not the time to listen for the knock
i won't expect it to be firm or loud
time now to turn my back on the harsh crowd
so many stars the sight comes as a shock
