It isn't even dark.
Already the stars twinkle in the Heavens,
Far above the cityscape.
They know things we're unprepared to accept.

Hey Jerry:  almost a "Twenty Or Less..." here...   I especially like your ending line:  "They know things we're unprepared to accept."  A pensive feel...  Enjoyed.

Appreciate your thoughts, Mark. Mankind have wondered about those stars, and now we have walked on the moon and sent robots to Mars

One of the reasons I like to live in small towns is that I can see so many stars...your words capture the magic and the beauty...*BIG HUGS*

*may our dreams ever be magical*
