She said he was to down to earth, that she could never see the stars                         beneath his staring. "Am I not grounded enough?         do you wish to gaze deeper               than even I can look into.. Would you want to reach the heavens, to see how many glimmers float deep        within every blinking of my sight. "She pondered his question, If you can make me see the universe entwined within every look                                         you give me.                               I'll be yours forever. So days past upon his gaze, not at her!             but the fulfilment of her wishes. And with that, he brought out his gesture                                  of making her see stars. "Strap this on yourself! But is this not just a rocket?         will I not leave your side. Never would I let us part,        you will only be above my gaze. my eyes steering you, no longer grounded. With a twinkle in his eye he gazed at her,    "I see the stars gleaming in your eyes.     "You are no longer grounded to..... And without a word the rocket shot off.         hearing her faint words.. I was wro… With that a shower of sparks erupted,          in the  heavens and for a second she saw stars.. But unfortunately ungrateful of what she had. He never saw her again after that.          But he was a man of his word. Now grounded to terra-firma he gazes                   towards the stars and smiles.

Finding Stars Beneath His Gaze
She said he was to down to earth, that she could never see the stars                         beneath his staring. "Am I not grounded enough?         do you wish to gaze deeper               than even I can look into.. Would you want to reach the heavens, to see how many glimmers float deep        within every blinking of my sight. "She pondered his question, If you can make me see the universe entwined within every look                                         you give me.                               I'll be yours forever. So days past upon his gaze, not at her!             but the fulfilment of her wishes. And with that, he brought out his gesture                                  of making her see stars. "Strap this on yourself! But is this not just a rocket?         will I not leave your side. Never would I let us part,        you will only be above my gaze. my eyes steering you, no longer grounded. With a twinkle in his eye he gazed at her,    "I see the stars gleaming in your eyes.     "You are no longer grounded to..... And without a word the rocket shot off.         hearing her faint words..

Some are not grounded enough to realise what they have, and this never ends well in the long run. Always count your stars as there not always going to be visible..
