The Lesser Lights

My eyes scan the blackened sky

The lights are dim and I wonder why

To see them clearer there is a solution

I must eliminate the light polution

For the stars in the dark, hidden in the night 

They are covered up by the lesser lights

These stars have not changed their position

But the lesser lights have clouded my vison

When those lights shut off others seem nearer

All of a sudden my vision appears clearer

For what is hidden then becomes revealed

Displaying the brightness of what has been concealed
