I reach up to the stars to see
my recognition
the trappings of
the very last show
To much the reason
is following me
to quick the season
temps my feelings
The laughter inside of the
latest declaration
is nothing without
the horror of time
I reach up to the stars to see
my definition
twice as many as
the previous version
Change of heart
yet focus breath
the tribal chant
low down in persuasion
My solemn sanity rocks
yet is perturbed
by petty thoughts
which time may fall
  yet gather wind and hurl to the sky
  the stars may gather my thoughts tonight

Stars never fail to inspire poets and poets never fail to express their thoughts about them in as many ways as there are stars.

Your inclusion of them adds color to your poetry which I enjoyed reading.
