Our Constellations⭐️

I can count my many blessings
Dwelling in the Countryside
Walkable from my house is vast open moorland far & wide
There is nothing I enjoy more
On a clear, crisp beautiful night
Than taking a stroll out of my door
To open fields where this is no light

I gaze up to the cloudless skies
Taking in sugar candy for my eyes
Millions & trillions of tiny twinkly lights
Shining like bejeweled diamonds in the night

An obvious constellation I can see
Is ‘Ursula Major’ the ‘Great Bear’
It is a ‘Plough’ shape for me
So it’s easily spotted up in the air

Then the two right hand stars of the ‘Plough’ are known as the ‘Pointers’
If you extend an imaginary line between where they are
Then you will see the ‘Polaris’ the ‘Pole star

‘Ursula Minor’ is a smaller version of the ‘Plough’
This is known as the ‘Little bear’
It’s so educational if you take a Star gazer’s book
When you go to study stars up there 

‘Jupiter’ is always visible, it is the brightest star 
I’m in awe I can see an actual Planet
Can it really be 558 million kms afar?

All these splendorous sparkling stars
Shimmering like little beacons in the night
A wondrous heavenly map above
Glistening like  ‘Angel’s halos’ such sheer delight
