Twinkle

There was a little star
reflected, it seems, on the roof
of my car
but when I looked to find it 
in the sky
there were clouds

there was a beautiful tree
a picture, I guess, in a book
about the sea
but when I went to find it 
on the coast
a clearcut was there

there was a storm of snow
inside, I think, a little
glass window
but outside it was summer 
in the wind
and flowers were there

Twinkle. twinkle, little star
How I wonder where you are
in the sky or on my car
in a book or on the beach
on the ground or in a jar

reality's really not that far away
