Running under the Moon and Stars

I never look at the stars outside my front door,
the streetlamp glares in my eyes and I turn away.
The Moon hovers among them unnoticed
until tonight in the cold air, my eyes adapt as
I run away from the street lamp into darkness,
the leaves on the trees glisten  under starlight,
I see them for the first time in this neighborhood,
wonderment!

Stars, shoes, and Twinkies. Not a bad combination. Stars are born and die, shoes are new then old, but Twinkies are forever.
