When I lived in a town some years ago
Used sneak at nights, stargaze everyday
Full of twinkling angels, saw nights glow
I can't see it happen at my place today
Tired of working wanted a short break
Was night time but needed to be awake
Got a quick thought, lets go out stargaze
Watch them, reignite a childhood craze
But the day I was out, the night was dark
No visible sign of the bright lovely spark
Moon was present but stars were missing
Felt it, my poor astrophile heart cracking
City, the place most of us people live
To many, food and shelter they give
Yet this location lacks stars in the sky
Sitting by a window, I wondered why
Science resolved my dragging doubt
Why at a city night, stars were not out
Pollution, smoke, haze hid the stars
Cause by city's the factories and cars
Isn't it ironic that stars left the big city
Where development is considered key?
The city, carried the hopes of millions
Yet stars stay hidden at night in billions
Even now, can see that shine at villages
There sky full of stars aren't rare images
Should move back to my town when done
Travel to the days when night sky was fun

I hope everyone is fine and taking good care of themselves
