Starry Night By Vincent Van Gogh
Starry Night Sonnet
O' stars who shine so high above the sky
Starry, starry twilight, perfected songs
Do you notice us as you pass us by?
Dancing away the midnight hours long
Shining away until the first light of dawn
Starlight drifting upon the little town
Among the glow, sleeping, we all belong
Musical spheres keeping us safe and sound
Thy children come and all gather around
Church's steeple gleaming with whitened light
Gazing upon the sky no cloud is found
During this warm breezy summer's midnight
Of all the things Van Gogh did paint and see
None were so lovely as the stars can be
