Elegy to the Court of the Stars | enchantment alight

Twinkle twinkle, queen of stars.
Twinkle Twinkle, queen of stars,
How I wonder what you are!
Beyond our mortal gaze so high,
Bewitched by darkness in the sky.
And when the city lights have gone,
When no beast nor man doth leer upon,
your silv’ry gown, your heav’ly light,
then twinkles, twinkles all the night.
All the faeries in the dark,
Thank you for your tiny spark,
They could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
Curtains of duskfall your consorts keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
your million eyes,
till the sun is returned to his place, in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, court of stars,
Do you wonder what you are?
